July 9, 2025Jul 9 Hello,I currently have 2 Synology servers that house most of my stuff. I have heard so much about unraid that I was wanting to put a server together out of some of my old decommission computer parts. I just wanted to play around with this, eventually might use it as a Plex server, tdarr node, maybe some virtual windows and home assistant. I would really like to run some Ai stuff like Pearl or nex.Would these parts work for a decent server box ?Supermicro X10SL7-F uATX DDR3 1600 LGA 1150 MotherboardIntel Xeon Processor E3-1231V3B 3.4 4 LGA 1150 (BX80646E31231V3) CPUSamsung DDR3-1600 8GB/1Gx72 ECC CL11 Server Memory either 16 or 32 RAMNvidia GTX 1060Ti and RTX 3050I have a ton of spare 6TB drives I could but in a 12 bay Supermicro chassis.Thanks for any advise.
July 9, 2025Jul 9 I would yes certainly , that should run fine but slowish , checkout SpaceinvaderOne on youtube to get you on the wagon , you can get a free 30day trial key from your install . Gosh imagine have oodles of 6TB disks :D , enjoy , the community is always here for you .
September 6, 2025Sep 6 I too came from Synology. I suggest using simple rsync to transfer your data over. And do set aside hundred, if not thousands, of hours to fiddle with unRAID!
