jonp Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Today we published a series of changes to our website to reflect the product direction of unRAID 6. The main changes are to the home page, the technology pages, and the "What is unRAID" page. The home page contains a new ~ 2 minute video to explain our mission with unRAID and what you can do with the platform. The facets of unRAID are then broken down into three concepts: Network Attached Storage, Application Server, and Virtualization Host. This is just the first of many new forms of content we are planning to showcase through our website. A special thanks to everyone that has supported us on our mission to make unRAID the most capable NAS platform available! EDIT: Also, please share the youtube video on our home page with friends!!

sparklyballs Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 has a nice look and feel to it, less techy, making it look more user approachable. haven't watched the video yet as i'm watching one of my tv shows. Quote Link to comment
dirtysanchez Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Nice video. unRAID has come a long way in the past few years. Keep up the great work guys! Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Definitely has evolved a LONG way with v6. Guess I need to build a new test machine with enough "oomph" to use all the new features. I have 3 i7-4790 systems, but they're all tied up doing other things, so I think a nice new Xeon is calling to me for UnRAID testing ... a nice fall project. Quote Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 on the docker section in the video, two of the apps there, i've made dockers out of. Quote Link to comment

jonp Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 I should probably add the entire video was made using an unRAID 6 workstation. That includes all footage that was captured. That was done with either nVIDIA ShadowPlay on my GTX 780 or my Avermedia capture device. All animations done in powerpoint attached to my windows VM and then further refinements using the totally free Windows Movie Maker. All data stored to the protected array over SMB. Even the voiceover was captured through a VM. Quote Link to comment

But don't worry, we will be doing many more videos. The others will be more instructional (how to use / setup). Quote Link to comment
GHunter Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Man, that's really nice! The video really grabs your attention and summarizes what unRAID 6 is capable of. Very professional looking. I'm thrilled with what you guys have done with unRAID 6! Gary Quote Link to comment

mr-hexen Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The video is quite nicely done, good job. I will say though, it seems a little premature since you haven't released your unVM's yet and the trial is time limited, no? I know there is an OpenELEC Beta VM (steamOS?) but you feature these quite prominently in the video. Using them as a "selling" feature when they are not yet available might put off would-be buyers.

You can create steamos yourself right now as well as all the other vms. Openelec will be released very soon. Quote Link to comment

Cheers, Mike Sorry if my previous message was short. Was typing one-handed on my phone while juggling something else at the time. Just wanted to highlight that the only VM so far we have formally announced that we want to support ourselves is OpenELEC, and we have working builds internally. The next step to rolling it out is to create another drop down option on the VM manager when adding a VM to select a template for OpenELEC (not "custom"). Still a few other higher-priority items we're focused on in the near-term before we can get to that, but shouldn't be long. Quote Link to comment
