AdamMannPro Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 So I have got my hands on an older MacPro 2.1 which has: 2x 4 core CPU 12gb Ram will have 8+ HDD's Now I have looked online and have seen some people who have tried to get UnRaid working on MP 1.1 and have had some issues, I was wondering if someone has managed to get it working on a 2.1 model. As this will effectively become some weird Frankentosh I don't mind if it has to boot from the likes of Clover or use some kind of Hackintosh build to get working. as this will only be a backup and storage NAS on the network for all of my video productions as well as personal films, music, photos etc. Any information would be great get me started.

bman Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Don't have access to a 2,1 model myself but have found it trivial to install various flavours of Linux on the 1,1 and it's worked great. Not sure if there would be drivers for the network and storage controllers of the MP machines in unRAID. If you boot from the unRAID USB drive what happens? Quote Link to comment
