Unraid Forum 100K Giveaway

I like the simplicity of the management interface. The GUI is easy to navigate while still exposing many of the configuration options.

 

I would like to see the ability to have multiple arrays on the same server. Somewhat similar to vdevs in ZFS. Where you can have 2+ groups of disks protected with their own parity drives, while maintaining the flexibility we love with the unraid array.

 

Cheers to a great year in 2020!

I love how user friendly the interface is yet still allows advanced users to do lots of customization. 

 

I would love to see official support for multiple btrfs SSD pools.

I love the flexibility in being able to grow my storage as my needs change over time.

I have been loving unraid for over 3 years now and share my knowledge with others as best i can.

 

I would love the ability to have multiple disk arrays allowing for the use of more than the 30 disk limitation with the current array.

  • Dockers, dockers and the ease of using and configure them
  • An official way of backing up the applications data

I’m pretty new to Linux, but dam Unraid makes it’s easy! I didn’t even know what Linux was two months ago!

 

I would like to see the second array option. Being able to be security cameras on another array with parity, even is small, would be amazing.

1) Super easy GUI for management

2) Native VPN support for Docker containers 

 

Thanks for super cool stuff unRAID team

what i love about unraid is easy - its so stable and well cared for by the creators and the community - its simply wonderful and has been ever since i started using it in 2009

 

I would love to see 2 things:  1) support for an all SSD array :) 2) support for more drives

What I like most about unraid (over freenas for example) is how the parity system works and how much hdd space it makes me win !

 

The thing I am really waiting for is the ability to run multiple arrays at once !

 

What do I like? The community, specifically and I wish to thank spaceinvaderone as the other reddit users.

 

Something for the future? Better integration for graphics card drivers, the current nvidia solution is awkward at best.

I also believe the license costs should be reviewed. Home users should be allowed a free or gimped license, this would increase the users of the software that are otherwise using proxmox, omv etc.

I love that you can grow your storage gradually. 

 

I would love to see silent corruption detection natively integrated with parity checking for automatic repairing of the corruption.  BTRFS only supports determining if there is corruption with a single drive, but the data exists in parity.  Shouldn't have to go dig up a backup for this.  Same with the Dynamix File Integrity plugin, from what I understand.

Quite hard to select one thing I love about Unraid, but if forced to reduce to one, it'll be back to basics: The ability to add drives, in singles or batches, of different sizes, and get them all protected and still recoverable in case of multi drive failure. This has been Unraid's first differentiator, and I think it still is. Now with encryption and dual parity... 

 

I'd like to see SAS drives spun down... 🙂

What do I love? The amount of information provided on the dashboard.

 

What do I want in 2020? More customizable information on the dashboard!

The best thing about Unraid is its Accessibility for the masses via Secure Array storage, various Docker apps, or VM operation, Unraid enables users to make their server anything they need it to be. Not many systems can claim that and especially not at Limetechs price point...

 

I have been running spinners for years, and use array drives as secondary for my VMs; OSes are unassigned SSD's. I'd like to start using SSD array storage, (ie speed) in 2020, this would render unassigned VM drive allocation moot and yield rather fast large "VM drives", great for running multiple 80GB+ games as well as better match my 10GB home network transfer read write speed negating the need for using the cache drive on a few of my shares.

I like that with Unraid I can add storage as my environment grows.

 

 

I would like the ability to bind the WebUI to one specific IP instead of it binding to port 443/80 on every IP/NIC assigned to the box.  I would also like to see an admin user that isn't the root user.

Thought of another future feature/enhancement.

1 Thing I like the most abount unRAID:

- Dual Parity and uneven drive support

 

1 Thing I'd like to see added to unRAID in 2020:

- Multiple array support

For a first time user it was easy to learn and setup.

 

Turn of case power button from Unraid.

I love the simplicity of unraid.

 

The possibility to span multiple servers.

 

My favorite thing is the ease of use getting started with the basics, combined with heavy customization once you know your way around.

 

in the future is really like to see native support for disk striping technologies. Yes, I know it’s “unraid”, but mostly I’m here for the UI, VM, and Docker support, not the ease of adding drives.

The thing I like most is the community to help me learn this great OS


I would like to see Multiple array’s

What I like the most about Unraid is the ease and simplicity of managing and maintaining a media server (from hard drive upgrades to swapping out drives, to dockers and more)

 

What I would like to see in the unraid future is to keep up the good work with stability and support!

I love how easy it is to spin up new docers and VMs, and I would like to see SSDs added to the arrays.

Developers with continued genuine interest in making the product better and trying new things - such as Unraid gaming!

 

Would love to see a Hardware Compatibility List (database) searchable - easing the foray and upgrade within the complexities of Unraid gaming!

Love the ease of setup and the rock solid stability of my server.

 

Would love some better backup options in the future.

I love the ability to store all out media from photos to entertainment. To loop in the improvement with that. Having the ability to use another Unraid users storage to store backups of configuration, flash, docker IMG in a encrypted backup. 

 

For example my buddy has Unraid server and we can have a off site backup of our configuration on each other's and have it encrypted with only the Unraid owner can open is the cherry on top! You can set a limit and even maybe do some other backups if both parties agree. 

 

Thanks for the contest, sport for the long post, just love Unraid and the power it gives its users! 

Unraids virtualisation is second to none. Both for Docker and VMs.

Would like to see Unraid to Unraid replication :)
