lanceomni Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I like the compatibility with a large range of hardware. As well as the ability to install, setup and basically forget it. Just works!! For 2020 I’d like to see a UnRAID to UnRAID backup solution built in. Quote Link to comment
muzzy182uk Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I like how unraid makes using Linux simple it's a simple idea with mean bolt on options making it so diverse. I would like to see being able to add sdd drive into the general pool and parity section since SSD drive are slow climbing in size Quote Link to comment
scotticles Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love unraid, i love how i can add any size drive that isnt bigger then parity and also directly use a drive when i want. love docker and vm support. the new login is nice. would like to see usb backup baked in with snapshots...a way to do pushover notifications, not sure if that exists Quote Link to comment
ch4newschamp Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love how easy it is to use docker containers! I would love it to be just as easy to use VMs. Quote Link to comment
[email protected] Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 One think I love about Unraid is it's ease of initial setup and use. In my 'light use' case, I can't find any major things it's lacking apart from hardware, but you can't help with that... Can you?!? it's getting expensive buying new drives to fed the server master #DataHorder Quote Link to comment
Goldmaster Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I like the interface better than freenas and would love to see zfs as a file format option. Quote Link to comment
Zygizz Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 (edited) thing i like about Unraid is flexibility you can create virtual machines easily just using gui, but if you get down into more technical side and edit xml file. One thing i like to see added in 2020. Multiple arrays with same awesome expandably feature. Like having one array being hard drives another array for ssd drives Edited December 27, 2019 by Zygizz Quote Link to comment
Cpt. Chaz Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Hard to pick just one thing I love about unraid, but if I had to pick... - I love the docker integration and UI. Before I knew anything else about unraid, I knew I liked the way it handled dockers and I red-pilled after that. - One thing I’d really like to see added, is a more comprehensive and user friendly way to do a server to server backup instead of relying on third party services or my shitty terminal skills. (I think this ability would even make unraid more business friendly, as I run a server for my small business as well as my home) Haha! Quote Link to comment
ptchernegovski Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I like how I can add a drive whenever I buy one, add it to the array, and it expands. Would like to be able to see my temps on my Ryzen 3000 series CPU Quote Link to comment
ClunkClunk Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love how for the past decade, unRAID has made management, expansion, and dealing with a random assortment of hard drives an easy task for me. I'd like to see multiple arrays and pools, so I could make some optimizations between speed and number of drives for primary/secondary use. Quote Link to comment
freakytoad1 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Love that I could consolidate several servers into one. Would like to have the ability to encrypt a drive that already has data on it. Quote Link to comment
bambino53 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Quote one thing you like most about Unraid I love the rapid updates with littel quality of life changes. For instance the ability to go to a docker's console rather than having to go into the Unraid terminal, lookup the docker id and then log in was a small thing that saved a ton of people some hassle. It is one of the things that show that the people who make this product are also users of this product. I Love Unraid! Quote one thing you'd like to see added to the OS in 2020 I would love for there to be some embedded monitoring tools. Being able to see what docker is utilizing the most of my monthly bandwidth would be very helpful. Quote Link to comment
Paintsu Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love the ease of deploying dockers. As a new feature i would like to see a implementation of better performing filesystem. Quote Link to comment
matto2494 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love how easy it is to use, build and maintain. Id love to see some new themes for 2020 Quote Link to comment
HonkyTonk Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 - I'love the simple Docker and VM Integration aaand... - would like to see in 2020 some way of grouping Docker Containers in the GUI Quote Link to comment
JasonK Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 One thing I like - how easy it is to add drive space to the pool to give my server more room. FreeNAS didn't make that easy. One thing I'd like to see added in 2020 - The ability to create VM templates to make it easy to import/export VM states (i.e. I can setup a Windows Server VM, get stuff configured like I want, export/save it as a template, then, if I want to create another VM off the template, I create the VM, point it at the template, Unraid creates the VM, lets me tweak whatever in the settings, boot, and go - no need to reinstall the software, etc - big time saver) Quote Link to comment
MrK Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Dockers are great. Would love an official android/IOS app! Quote Link to comment
xNeRv3 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love the ease of use with Unraid. For 2020 I don't have any big desires other than keep on being great! Quote Link to comment
pcnc Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love the ease of us, as well as the low barrier of entry to get a basic setup going, as well as having the flexibility to spin it up in any way you'd want. Another plus which had more impact than I initially expected was how impactful caching + disk spindown was regarding the power usage. That, coupled with folder caching makes disk spin infinitely less than in my previous setup. The WAF has increased tenfold since installing it. For 2020 I'd like seeing multiple arrays while maintaining existing flexibility. Quote Link to comment
Rob- Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 He everyone I like being able to add drives on at a time if I need to. I would like to see better VM support Quote Link to comment
BenjaminMetzler Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I love that I can replace the motherboard, CPU, and memory and unRAID boots up w/o issue. I would like to see official https integration with Let's Encrypt certificates. Quote Link to comment
bdelcamp Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 My favorite thing is the ABSOLUTE flexibility. Between the mixed disks and the extensibility, Unraid has got to be the most flexible rolled up OS available! The one thing I'd like to see added in 2020 is perhaps the ability to use LXC/LXD containers alongside everything else. Thank you so much (devs & community) for all your hard work!

adminmat Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 one thing you like most about Unraid: Absolutely, 100% the helpful, patient community. I simply wouldn't have been able to get where I am today without the help of the unRAID community. one thing you'd like to see added to the OS in 2020: Backup. I'd like to see a built-in backup feature to back up your shares and files to another server or storage solution. Would like to have the ability to back up to both an on site and off site server.

james_thomas Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Hi all, I love that I don't have to extensively plan out storage and can just throw in drives as needed. I would like to see multiple arrays for storage. Quote Link to comment
Pcpro745 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Always been a user of raid's and windows servers i love the fact that i can just plop more hard drives in without issue. Would be nice to have a way to get SMS alerts Quote Link to comment
