BobPhoenix Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I chose 16GB because once I switch from ESXi to unRAID/Xen that is what my 3 main servers will contain. Currently in ESXi I only have 2GB assigned to the unRAID VMs and would be all I would use if I continue with ESXi. I do have a N40L server with 4GB and a N54L server with 8GB running unRAID as well as my 6.0b5a server with 8GB and a 2GB WHS2011 VM and 2GB miscellaneous other VMs that are usually shutdown so far.

cyrnel Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I imagine many of us have 2GB. Both of my boxes do. Quote Link to comment
prtsmgr Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 16GB, this is the same hardware I ran ESXi on previously. Now running 6.0-b5a. Quote Link to comment
mcai3db3 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 8gb. Waste of money until I upgrade. Quote Link to comment
mobias1313 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Both my servers run 4GB right now. Once I finally upgrade to v6.0 I will hopefully be swapping to either 8GB or 16GB, depending on pricing. Quote Link to comment
MortenSchmidt Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 2gb. Was a good amount 3 years ago, and it is hard to see that changing just because more is cheaply available (to people with ddr3 systems..) 1 Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 6GB in first server. 8GB in second server Quote Link to comment
theone Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 4GB (maxed out my board) Running Windows 7 on Virtualbox Quote Link to comment
Harpz Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Currently have 4gb in my server. When I take the plunge to v6 and start playing with vm's I'll probably up it to 8gb. Waiting for a decent xen webui to appear. Quote Link to comment
neilt0 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I voted 8GB. One has 8GB, the other has 3GB. Quote Link to comment
Dougy Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 2GB but there is no option to specify this.... Quote Link to comment
jumperalex Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Was only just recently running happy with 4GB in bare unraid 6 with plex as my only plugin and no cache-dir. I bumped it to 8GB of ECC to start playing with Xen. Quote Link to comment
prostuff1 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 1. An ESXi build that has 12GB total in the box, 4GB of it to the unRAID VM 2. Crashplan backup server (HP N40L) with 4GB 3. Dev/Test/preclear server also has 4GB in it I seem to have a thing for 4 Quote Link to comment

Ryan_M Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 2GB here too... still no option for that Quote Link to comment
Ashe Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Currently at 8gb but will increase to 16gb now v6 is here. Quote Link to comment
Vynce Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 2GB in both servers. (didn't vote because 2GB is missing) voted Quote Link to comment
Just Me Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 2GB (didn't vote because 2GB is missing) dito Quote Link to comment
Yorgo Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 2gb, also didn't vote. It may make sense to change the first option to "2gb or less". Quote Link to comment
misterbeetz Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 16GB. Just upgraded to a new rig. Was 8GB before... Quote Link to comment
