Which V5 RC for Unraid server #2???

[DiggsNC]

First Unraid server is on 4.7 humming away with under 300MB of free space. No more space for drives so I bought one of the 2U 12bay servers from AVS forum thread and Tams solutions. I bought a pair of flash drives from Lime Tech with the plus license. I would like to start up the second Unraid server this weekend and have 3 drives greater than 2TB sitting waiting to go into it. So 4.7 isn't really an option so I am looking at the available RC that are there.

 

So, I have 4.7 on a flash drive with a plus license (which I will upgrade to a pro later) and am curious how to proceed.

 

1. Which RC should I use? The latest, or is there an earlier RC that's more stable/less buggy (seems many of them are running well)

 

2. Should I upgrade the 4.7 flash drive before I setup Unraid, or should I get it configured in 4.7 then do the upgrade, or does it matter?

 

3. Should I upgrade the current server which has six 2TB drives from 4.7 to 5.RC? and replace a few drives with larger drives? - Doesn't seem like a good option.

 

4. Is there a better way to go about this that I am not considering?

 

Thanks for any suggestions or answers and hope everyone has a great weekend. Looks like I am going to spend a rainy weekend behind monitors and keyboards updating Unraid and Home theater PCs.

8a here.. no issues with core unRAID at all. There was an error from some users between b12 and rc5, but it seems to be resolved since then.
