September 22, 20178 yr 1x 8GB HP ECC in N54L. 1x 16GB Micron/Crucial ECC in main socket 1151 server. I wanted to put another identical Crucial stick in the server last week but RAM prices have almost doubled in one year and all the sizes i wanted were out of stock. These DRAM companies are now making huge profits, i will leave the purchase until prices return to "sane" levels
September 24, 20178 yr I had 4GB but I've been running into some spinup issues that I think are due to cache pressure so I expanded to 16GB. 26TB, dual parity, not running VMs or dockers. But I *do* have a time machine backup which makes approximately 3 billion tiny files.

September 24, 20178 yr It is being excluded but I still have problems. Part of it may just be cache_dirs itself. I mentioned a possibly related issue in the cache_dirs thread but never got a reply.
September 25, 20178 yr 80GB DDR4 ECC. Seems like an odd number but I won an extra ebay auction I wasn't expecting and rather than get rid I chucked it in on top of the 64GB I had planned for
September 25, 20178 yr I used to have 16GB but then I had memory issues so I maxed min out with 32GB of DDR4 ECC Memory.
October 28, 20178 yr My Main Unraid system HP elite 8300 SFF Intel Core i7 3770 Clocked at 3.4 turbo up to 3.9 16 GB of Kingston DDR3 1600Mhz 256 WD Black NVME Cache Drive 3 x WD Red's 3 TB HD Main array 1 X WD Blue 650 GB Unassigned HD for Linux VM
November 10, 20178 yr Well as i was shopping ebay for my current setup i came across an offer i could not resist (it was just to cheap) So now i have 2 2,3Ghz cores running and 96GB of RAM.... Had a Windows Server on it until last week but i come to love unRIAD (for now) Plenty of Room for my Media Dockers and VMs for me to play with.... Still looking for stuff to do with all that power

Still looking for stuff to do with all that power 2 x 2.3GHz cores? or 22 x 3GHz cores? One sounds mismatched and one sounds awesome!

They are both sufficient in their duties.

November 14, 20178 yr Box1 Asus 970 Aura Motherboard AMD FX 8350 16GB 2133MHz DDR3 ram maxed out slots Box2 MSI x370 Carbon Motherboard AMD Ryzen7 1700 16GB 3200MHz DDR4
December 6, 20178 yr I have 32GB's of ECC ram. I can expand up to 512GB's of ram, although I don't think I'll ever need 1/4 of that. Probably at some point, will have 64GB's
December 8, 20178 yr I only have 4gb of DDR2 ram, but I only run 1-2 dockers and none are intensive, no torrenting, no VPN, just a media server. I plan to up it when I upgrade the sever motherboard.
December 22, 20178 yr Current server is 64GB; next week's TR upgrade will also be 64GB, until price of ram goes back down which point I'll go to 128G -- Totally overkill for unRAID itself, but I like and play with VM's.
January 14, 20188 yr I bought an Dell R710 with 48 Gigs, I had 8 before that and 4 before that. I just kept needing more ram for a VM or Docker container.
January 21, 20188 yr For now Kingston VR ECC UDIMM DDR4-2400 8GB Micron, enough in my usecase. Unless i will add more vm's. Edited January 21, 20188 yr by SiNtEnEl
