May 24, 20197 yr Hello guys, I am new to the unRAID family. I am setting up my new NAS/Server. I have a core i9 9900k + 64Gb RAM DDR4-3000 + Nvidia Quadro P2000 My goal is to have some Plex transcoding. I manage good everything about Plex and docker configuration but I do not know how to organize my array of devices. This is what I have currently : - 6 HDD 5400rpm WD Red 4TB - 2 SSD SATA Samsung 850 pro 500GB - 1 SSD NVme Samsung 970 EVO PLUS 1TB Which drive I should use for caching and which drive for storing my docker containers ? It is better to use NVme for caching or to store docker ? What would you do with that configuration ?
June 14, 20197 yr depends on the importance of your vms and containers The spinners in the array (1 or 2 for parity it's up to you) I would make a cache pool with the 2 850 pro. Till here that's what i made for my server. I don't have the need to add a nvme ssd. If i had a high i/o demanding vm i'll probably run it from a nvme as unassigned drive with a daily backup on the array.
