Hello. I've wanted to try UNRAID so i got myself an USB and a trial key for now. I am loving the experience until now, but there is a problem with my hardware or configuration that i am unable to figure out. My system crashes after some time and i can't find anything in syslogs that i've got until now.

SETUP: (HP ProDesk 600 G2 Tower PC)
CPU: i7-6700
Memory: 40 GB at 2133 MT (2 x 16 + 1 x 8 | Tested with memtester for 48h contnously without crash / errors )
Network: PCI-E 2.5 Gb Card (Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8211/8411)
Storage: 1x 512 GB cache 2x 500 GB HDD (Server is used for storing some unimportant data)

My suspicion is related to the two HDDs being extremely old, but i don't want spending too much for it when i use it just for testing and some fun stuff.

I have a Smart Plug installed as well and when crashes happend power usage stays at >=40 in case that helps.
Any help or suggestion is very much appreciated.

I left SMART data from every hdd i've tried to swap.

Setup Syslog Server

I've done that again now and enabled back mirror to flash drive. I don't know if this helps right now but here's the present syslog. andromeda-syslog-20250826-1326.zip
And found this old one as well: andromeda-syslog-previous-20250825-0637.zip

Do any of those cover a crash? If yes, please indicate the approx. time code.

It just happened again after some work on my dev env vm. It runs on cache and that ssd is new out of the box. About time i can’t really estimate it feels like something with I/O crashing maybe… I am no expert at server, just a basic linux user

You need to zip and post syslog captured by syslog server.

Here's the previous one.

Assuming that covers an event I'm afraid that there's nothing relevant logged, this can also be a hardware issue, one thing you can try is to boot the server in safe mode with all docker containers/VMs disabled, let it run as a basic NAS for a few days, if it still crashes it's likely a hardware problem, if it doesn't start turning on the other services one by one, including the individual docker containers.

Disabled LXCs, VMs and docker will wait to see if it crashes. Thank you for suggesting as i was out of ideas ! Docker could be the issue but not sure as i use IGPU for Frigate but it crashes after hours of running with no error from frigate itself.

20:34 h of uptime and no crash should i start Docker services and try running a day without Frigate (iGPU Passtrough) ?

Worth a try

Hello again ! After a few days and some working around the house i had no crashes nor freezing so Frigate was the issue all along. Any Self-Hosted NVR Alternative Tho ?

Thank's for support !
