March 15, 20179 yr Hi, 1.) I just downloaded UnRaid and put it on a 14gb Corsair Voyager USB, I was hoping I can store OS images on it in a folder along with drivers for each OS, Is this possible? (Can i still access it as a USB media?) 2.) I want to setup a 2 VM's but only one will be used at a time, one Linux and one Windows, (a bit like a dual boot system) Can I set all cores to both VM's and same for ram ect.. as I won't need to share resources? 3.) Will windows 10 still work on my system as its the same or do I need to get a new copy? I believe the *Key* is stored on my Bios. Thanks for your Help in advance. Carl System specs are. Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64-bit Processor: AMD FX 9590 Eight-Core Processor (8 CPUs), ~4.7GHz Memory: 16384MB RAM GPU: AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Mobo: Crosshair V Formula-Z
March 15, 20179 yr Community Expert Usually people don't put anything much on their flash drive. It won't perform as well as an SSD or spinner, or have as good a lifetime if heavily used. Even the unRAID OS uses the flash very little. It just contains the archive of the OS and some settings you make in the webUI. The OS is unpacked fresh from that archive into RAM at boot time and the OS actually runs completely in RAM. When you make configuration changes they are stored on flash so they can be read when booting again, but even those settings are actually used from RAM. The flash drive is accessed very little and very infrequently.
