May 31, 201511 yr I just came to the site for the first time in a while and saw that 6.0 is out. I am wonderign what the biggest differences are from 5.0.5 to 6.0 and if I should upgrade. My hardware is a lime-tech MD-1200. I am guessing it is not powerful enough to handle some of the new features of 6.0 right?
May 31, 201511 yr I don't know what the specs are of that server, but these are good reads to learn about v6: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Upgrading_to_UnRAID_v6 http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_Manual_6 By and large the biggest differences between v5 and v6 would be: 64 bit Ability to run docker containers Native ability to run virtual machines Support file systems other than ReiserFS (namely, XFS and BTRFS)

If you are having specific performance problems with RFS then XFS may be helpful. If you don't know what any of this means then stick with 5.0.6 until 6.0.1 is released.
