Is there a compatibility list?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm planning to get unRaid and build a setup based on Ryzen 5 2600. As I have been out of touch with hardware I'm having a hard time deciding on compatible hardware (mainboard & ECC RAM). I found a mainboard (ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate) that has a built-in 10GBe NIC. Is there a compatibility list where I can find out if this 10GBe NIC is compatible with unRaid? Or if I decide to get another 10GBe NIC (not built-in to the mainboard, as the ASUS 10GBe for example).

Google is your friend, my german fellow (saw your link will guide to a german webshop):

So the NIC should be supported by Linux. Maybe there are some users in this forum using this MoBo respectively the NIC.

 

But take a look on https://geizhals.de/asrock-x470-taichi-ultimate-90-mxb7h0-a0uayz-a1804397.html

 

Much more cheaper on other webshops😎🖖

It is a valid question, the Linux drivers for those cards may not be included in Unraid.

 

If nobody can give you a direct yes or no, I would do a Google search for "unraid x470" and "unraid 10gbe" to see what you can find

There is also the fact that if a card you get is reasonably mainstream and the Linux driver is not included already in Unraid it is quite likely that requesting it will get it added to a future Unraid release.

Many thanks for the help, I didn't know that you could request certain drivers to be added to unRaid. I've got a very old PC from my brother since a couple of days ago and am giving uRaid Trial a go. My next purchase is an LSI expander card, after that I'll try and finalise my first build.

search for the product in the search field, which is usually going to be much faster than browsing through all the pages.
