June 8, 20188 yr @lixe If your have an old stick, check the bios for "Legacy Boot" or some such option. It might only be looking for EFI boot and you haven't set that on the stick. Or you could plug the USB into another system and follow the instructions on the wiki to enable EFI boot. Just a guess here BTW, never worked with that board before. Edited June 8, 20188 yr by Tybio

After enabling UEFI boot in unraid, I now can also start from the UEFI boot
June 13, 20188 yr I have searched all over the forums, no answer. Has anybody tested the ASUS ROG STRIX X370-F GAMING for ECC? This board just got super cheap on sale, beating the famous prime x370 pro. I suppose, that if they have ECC RAM listed in QVL, than it should work in ECC mode.

June 21, 20188 yr Just a heads up guys tomorrow newegg will be having the 1700 for $160 My server is on an i3 4th gen might aswell bite the bullet and upgrade.... Anyone knows which motherboard to pair the cpu with ... perferably one without too much issues. Also i will need a GPU ... can i use one just for the installation and then move it into a VM ??? or is it required at to be installed all times ??
June 26, 20188 yr I'm new to unraid, but it seems like a perfect setup for my wishes.. If I understand all this correct I could build a Ryzen machine, use it to run a Windows VM for my workstation/gaming and run a Plex docker instance (or just a Ubuntu machine with Plex) next to it? Is it stable enough to run 24/7?
June 30, 20188 yr Got my r7 2700x today and i can confirm its boost correctly. I've seen it get as high as 4.3 on one core and a 4.1 all core. This is on a Gigabyte gaming 5 ax370 board.
July 1, 20188 yr I've been using an Unraid Ryzen 1800x with asus crosshair vi hero. The system froze and unstable on Windows 10. It's the only reason I even went to Unraid, for stability. The last piece to the puzzle is the getting to GPU passthrough Gigabyte Radeon RX Vega 64 Gaming OC 8G. Has anyone tried or GPU passed any RX Vega cards? I can actually confirm the Ryzen Platform to be very stable. No issues or random freezes. I'm not big on overclocking so it's not big deal.

I've had EVGA. You'll need to extract the BIOS with GPU-Z from Techpowerup and just remove the header from the BIOS with a Hex editor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IP-h9IKof0 That's what I did with my card, GTX 1060 6GB. None of the online BIOS worked. Also don't get any AMD cards for Unraid. They will stop working if you ever reboot or turn off the VM. To fix it you need to reboot the server. You'll have less headaches. Funny that I have a Vega 64. If anyone can assist with dumping or getting that BIOS, I'd really appreciate it.

I know servers with less drives that need dual 1100W Memory - Memory tends to work or not work, if you get a good supplier refurb can be ok. But it probably wont last as long. SATA - LSI are recognised name with SAS cards and the 9211 is a decent card. However a SAS card has 4 lanes/phy for data (per connector) if you connect more than 4 disks to a connector they will be sharing the bandwidth of the connector/cable

This is my previous build: ASUS Prime X370-PRO MB • AMD Ryzen 7 1800X 8-Core 3.6GHz • Crucial CT16G4DFD8213 DDR4 2133 (64GB) • Seasonic SS-660XP2 660W 80 PLUS PLATINUM • Asus Radeon 6450 1GB (Desktop) Graphics Card • 12 x Seagate ST4000DM000 4TB 5400rpm (40TB, dual parity) • 2 x SAMSUNG 850 EVO 1TB SSD (Cache) • Docker: PlexTV • VM: CentOS (LAMP server), Windows 10 (GPU Pass-through) A lot of people have hanging/freezing issues, and mine was no exception. I never did mess around with setting C-states, though. Since my Windows 10 VM is running virtually 100% of the time, it's enough to keep the processor happy and out of the state that causes this oddball failure. I ran this build for about a year before upgrading to a Threadripper 1950X. I don't think I've seen a freeze/hang on this build, but again the Windows 10 VM tends to run pretty much all the time, and maybe that's why it does idle long enough to cause problems.

July 5, 20188 yr I just completed my Ryzen build a few days ago and I agree with ars92, I did not change the C-States, nor did I do the zenstates fix. My system has now been up for a few days and have been waiting to see if it hung, but so far been stable. I did upgrade the Bios to latest right away and also upgraded Unraid to 6.5.3 at same time. My new build: Norco 4224 case Gigabyte X399 Designare EX Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 64 GB Kingston ECC ram 4 x 512gb Samsung 960 NVME SSDs Raid1 cache (Raid10 was not stable for me) 18 x HGST 4TB NAS drives, Dual parity Dual 10gbe bond (LACP) I still haven't been able to get the temperature sensors working on this board

Looks like I got a bad Samsung 960 SSD, works for about 3 days then goes missing. Whats odd is that it passes every test I can throw at it. I will replace this SSD and give RAID10 another go.
July 10, 20188 yr Greetings, I also have been considering upgrading from my current setup: M/B: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. - F2A55-M LK CPU: AMD A8-5600K APU with Radeon™ HD Graphics @ 3600 HVM: Enabled IOMMU: Disabled Cache: 192 kB, 4096 kB Memory: 16 GB Multi-bit ECC (max. installable capacity 16 GB) Network: eth0: 1000 Mb/s, full duplex, mtu 1500 Kernel: Linux 4.14.26-unRAID x86_64 OpenSSL: 1.0.2n to something with a little more power (though all I use it for is file storage and Plex). I have been considering a Ryzen build, but finding a decent MB that supports reasonably priced ECC ram has been difficult (especially with the ASUS MB's not even listing ECC ram as compatible). Any MB's I have looked at so far have been getting less than stellar reviews...so I am looking for ones that have been used and liked. I would like to spend under 200 for the MB. any recommendations? Thanks for any help!
July 11, 20188 yr Does anybody know what the idle power draw is on a 2700x? I really want to upgrade to Ryzen but I have read that the Intel chips use a lot less power.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
July 12, 20188 yr Looks like its much of a much-ness when core counts are taken into account. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-7-2700x-review,5571-12.html

Idle power draw is 95 Watts on my 2700X, with 2 x HDD, 2 x SSD, 1 x GTX970, 1 x GTX710 (both GPU unallocated). 1 x docker image (pihole), and 1 x Ubuntu VM (a VPN gateway, so very little CPU usage) are active. When I run a Windows gaming VM (with the GTX 970 and all CPU cores allocated) the power draw goes up to around 270W. I think that's pretty reasonable. My previous HP microserver (with a very low power draw CPU) was around 45W idle.

July 15, 20188 yr Any Ryzen owners passed through their AMD 3.1 USB controller to a VM successfully? I can't and want to see if ANYONE has....
July 15, 20188 yr Was no problem for me on B350 or x370 arch with ACS_Override Multifunction Patch i think its called? Try to google it, it basically breaks up the iommu groups even more. Edited July 15, 20188 yr by jammsen
July 17, 20188 yr I just built my Ryzen server yesterday. It crashed sometime when I was unable to get to it. I have been watching the log and its spitting out this error a lot: Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: AER: Corrected error received: id=0008Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, id=000a(Transmitter ID)Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: device [1022:15d3] error status/mask=00001000/00006000 Which correpsonds to this: IOMMU group 1: [1022:15d3] 00:01.2 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Device 15d3 Anyone else had this problem? On a B350 mobo. Edit: After some googling and trying various things, I added pcie_aspm=off to my syslinux.cfg and the errors are not getting thrown around anymore. I will let it run and see if my system is stable now. Edited July 17, 20188 yr by choppyesq
July 22, 20188 yr How should CPU pinning be handled on a ryzen chip? I assume the CCX makes it slightly more complicated. I guess the real question is, what is the layout of the CPU/Threads for 1-16?
