February 10, 201610 yr I'm in the process of building myself a small all-SSD storage server to host files I want fast network access to including my docker config files. I will be upgrading my network to 10GbE this summer but in the meantime (as soon as the server is built) I'd like to move my appdata files off of my UnRAID cache pool and over to my SSD storage server to be accessed via NFS shares over the network (1Gbps for now). This way I can centralize my appdata for use amongst multiple systems docker (never at the same time). So if I want/need to UnRAID array down for any reason I can still keep all my dockers running on another system running docker (probably Ubuntu). My question for anyone who is/ has attempted to do this, have you run into any kind of performance issues with your appdata folders being accessed via NFS over a 1Gbps connection as opposed to locally off of your cache pool? I'm mainly concerned with Plex since I have over 200GB of metadata and thumbnail preview images but I run the following dockers in case anyone has specific experiences to share: Apache CouchPotato Madsonic NZBGet Plex Media Server PlexPy Plex Requests Sonarr UniFi Also, I imagine I will need to place my docker.img on a disk outside my array but that shouldn't be an issue.
