February 16, 20242 yr Hi everyone I recently rebuilt an old PC up for my replacement unraid server, but it failed somewhere along the way - unsure why. A QNAP rack mount 8 bay with 16tb of drives cam along at a great price so I have decided to use that instead now. It boots unraid fine but the fans are loud - I guess there is not control over them. My question is - I just move my flash drive from the old server to the new server and booted from it so that all the plugins etc would still be there. Yes, I know the previous drives will not be there and I have to reconfigure the system for the new ones. Is this a valid way of "upgrading" or should I start from scratch again with the flash drive and put a clean unraid on there and rebuild everything? Is there anything special or extra I should do with the QNAP.
