ok after the long problems with NIC's and other things, and heaven help my data. I think I'll try to migrate over to v5

 

but which? 5b12 or 5b14? Which is more stable and reliable?

 

Second issue, I'm using the Kingston reader, so I was going to just put v5 on a new card, so what's the best method to transfer the configuration over?

This depends on your hardware.

this also depends on what you're running on your unraid as far as addon and such

in most cases..

 

I would run a parity check.

shutdown server copy entire sd card to the new sd card.

Do the "recommended upgrade" on new sd

make sure you run the bat to make it bootable.

you might need to change a few things in your go file if you have old addons and such running..

boot.

verify the server came online ok.

if good, run the change permissions script.

check parity...

 

i might have missed a few details so a second opinion might be a good idea..

M'board Asus M5A78L-M LX

CPU AMD Athlon II X3 455

CoolerMaster SilentProM 700w Power Supply

2x Crucial 4 GB DDR3-1333 (CT51264BA1339)

6x Hitachi 2k3000, 2tb

 

However I am considering a new M'Board.. undecided, want to see how this goes.

 

And the power supply will change, again undecided. I want something modular, the less excess cables the better the airflow (had an OCZ ModStream come in, damn split rails), so I'm leaning toward this

54A on the 12v rail, should be more than enough for eventual 10 of those Hitachi's.

Hello,

Try 5b14, I only went back to 5b12a because I wanted support for a certain SATA controller (m1015), your MB NIC will be supported.

Are you using that Kingston Reader with a SD or micro-SD card? Can you let me know which Type and model it is?

SD card. Right now the one that came with it (Kingston) but I have a new PNY card to replace (8gb for $12 at BB yesterday)

Which reader do you use?

Kingston MobileLite USB 2.0

Thanks.

 

Have you got your server up and running yet?

 

Thanks.

Oh yeah, up and running, about 8tb copied over, waiting on some PCI-e SATA cards so I can hang the other 4 drives. It's just these little... annoyances... that are making me crazy (NIC, Powersupply, etc..)

On 5b14 with the same MB?

I'm still on 4.7, haven't move to 5b-anything yet..  my reading does have me leaning to 5b12a
