Hi, I just installed Unraid 6.8.3

 

I set up one array with 2 12 gig drives and one 12 gig parity. It too almost 24 hours to parity check... 

 

It now has file system xfs.

 

 How can I change it to be encrypted? 

 

Thanks, and any more advice on a new set up? 

 

Disks will need to be formatted (any data there will be deleted), stop array, click each disk and set filesystem to "xfs - encrypted", you can also set default filesystem to the same for any future disks (Settings -> Disk Settings), then choose encryption passphrase to start the array and format the disks (parity will remain valid).

Thank you, do you recommend  encrypting the cache?  btrfs  encrption?

I don't use encryption, it's up to you if you think you need it or not.

 

 

Is the overprovisioning fix still needed when encrypting a cache ssd?

 

I was reading some old forum threads about HPA and the lack of trim support on encrypted ssds.
