TStavley Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Pardon my ignorance here (Newbie), I am wondering if this is possible. I dont have enough HDD slots and need to add additional storage. I have a Synology DS1019+ sitting there with 50TB available. Can i have UNRAID share storage via network to this device? I know i could go and buy bigger 2.5" HDD's, but that cost money. Appreciate the help. Current setup is as follows: Dell R610 (6) 2.5" HDD slots. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Unraid can't directly use that storage as its own for the array or cache. but it can access that data over the network using the Unassigned Devices plugin. If you haven't already, install the Community Applications plugin. Then go to the Apps page to install Unassigned Devices. Quote Link to comment
TStavley Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 This is how i have it now, which i dont think is correct... I do have unassigned devices installed, what would i need to do in order to get it under the unassigned devices? Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 It is already an SMB Share setup with the Unassigned Devices plugin and can be accessed just like any of your Unassigned Devices. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Quote Link to comment
TStavley Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) I dont see it on my Dashboard, which was making me think i screwed it up somehow. I can only see the SSD i have in there I just want i guess to know its there and available. Going to try and set up Blue Iris in a VM and use that extra storage for NVR Edited April 30, 2020 by TStavley forgot to answer his question Quote Link to comment
