April 16, 20242 yr Hi, I want to optimize the boot time of my UNRAID. I want to skip any bz* files/firmware verification. I know it's a risk to my data integrity, but I am willing to take that risk. This is by far the biggest chunk of startup time. How can I achieve that? Thanks!

I suspect that it is not the verification that takes the time, but simply uncompressing the archives and loading them into RAM to run Unraid. Having said that If it really does speed up the Unraid boot time by any appreciable amount it would be good to know.
April 20, 20242 yr Author Thanks, it makes total sense. It's USB2 after all. I decided to not try it out, because the booting anyway needs to put the firmware into the RAM, so there is nothing saved skipping firmware checksum.
