Could Someone Give me Advice on Upgrading Unraid Server for Enhanced Performance?

[lizaclarr]

Hello there,

 

I have been running Unraid on my server for a while now, and I am looking to upgrade to improve performance; particularly with handling multiple dockers and VMs simultaneously.

 

I am primarily interested in upgrading my CPU and RAM to better handle the increasing demands on my server. as potential upgrades, but I'm unsure about compatibility with Unraid and whether these upgrades will significantly improve performance in real-world scenarios.

 

Are there any known issues or compatibility concerns with [specific CPU model] when running Unraid, especially concerning virtualization performance?

RAM Configuration: Would upgrading from noticeably enhance the performance of VMs and dockers?

 

Has anyone upgraded a similar setup recently and noticed significant improvements in multitasking, Docker responsiveness, or VM performance?

 

Are there any potential downsides or considerations I should be aware of before proceeding with these upgrades?

 

Also, I have gone through this post; https://forums.unraid.net/topic/38065-upgrading-server-for-vm-dockers-aws-devops-advices/

 

I value any insights; experiences; or recommendations the community can provide based on your own upgrades or knowledge. Additionally; if there are alternative upgrade paths you think might be more suitable for my needs; I would love to hear about those as well.

 

Thank you all in advance for your help and assistance.
