September 26, 2025Sep 26 Greetings.Been a several years user of Unraid, and was wonder what is the current state of making and using an NVME array?I want to purchase a mini pc with several m.2 slots as my main that is on all the time, and move my current main with fixed HDD's as the backup with wake on lan to do a data sync.From a quick look, there is mention of using a ZFS pool for NVME's, but not sure how this would work on the unraid array part 🤔. The other option appears to be "no array" and then use unraid "normal" without protection, maybe with some sync between this system and the storage system 🤷....Any insights would be appreciated. thanks !!
