  1. Thank you. I just worry about their latest versions and don't need the latest features. I believe 6.5.55 is stable and has the Java patch so I should be set if I ever upgrade a device.
  2. So for both to confirm, going from 5.14.23 to 6.5.54 is a good route? No need to take any earlier 6.* version to start with and then upgrade to 6.5.54? I'm really just looking for a stable version of 6 so I can eventually get upgrade to 7. Thanks!
  3. I am having the exact same issue. Have just started after upgrading to 6.6.3. What does "Fix Common Problems, Troubleshooting Mode" refer to?
  4. Nice clean look with great specs! I'm very surprised you're able to idle at 18 watts with that CPU. Everything working out with onboard NIC's? No driver issues?
  5. Thanks for the detailed reply, but this issue is in Linux, not Windows.
  6. Thanks. I'll take a look at they setting. Would love to upgrade, but I would have to build a new system since my hardware is > 10 years old.
  7. I recently updated from version 4.x.x to 5.0.6. I've noticed that my monitor that is connected to my server never sleeps anymore. With the previous version, my monitor would sleep (video signal off) within about 5 mins. Is there a setting somewhere that I can change to turn off the video signal? Thanks! Dan
  8. I hate to hijack a thread, but I'm seeing sort of the same issue with an SSD drive outside of the array. I've have recently installed the SAS2LP in an PICe x16 v1 slot (2.5Gbps). The only drive I've added is an SATA II SSD which "theoretically" top out at 6.0 Gbps (but not in this case due to PCIe v1). All my array drives are hooked up to the motherboard with previous pre-clear results between 80-120 Mbps. Parity checks are also in the 100's once my weakest drive drops of. For some reason, any file I copy to the SSD, from array, from network, from ssd -> ssd, i'm topping out at 41 MB/s (using rsync --progress, obviously not rsync over network). I had much higher speeds (well over 80) for any of the aforementioned file transfers before moving the drive from the motherboard to controller card. I don't see any strange log entries or errors. SSD drive properly mounts with snap.sh. I plan on adding new > 2TB drives and I'm concerned that i'll have performance reductions due to this card. Any ideas? Thanks, Dan
  9. Yes aware about the parity drive. Just want to make sure the SAS controller was compatible before I spend the money. Thanks for the response.
  10. Yeah so ignore this, I made a stupid mistake and I can't delete this thread.
  11. I upgraded to 5.0.6 from 4.7 last night. I thought everything was working until I tried to access my shares. I get "Access is denied" for all my drives. I use SMB shares and mount them in Windows 7. Not sure what to do since they unRAID was working flawlessly since 2007. Not a single folder on my 5 drives is accessible... any suggestions? BTW, nothing reported in the log when I try to access my shares. Thanks
  12. So... I've been using unRAID since about 2007 (yes, the famous ASUS P5N-VM DO MB) and haven't upgraded any of the hardware :'(... only hard drives. I'm to the point where I would like to add some > 2TB drives. I originally thought I needed a new MB, CPU, RAM, and controller card. After reading the following thread: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=10671 , I might not have to. Yes, this is referring to SAS, not SAS2, but I'm hoping the same should apply. Can I just add the SAS2LP in the "graphics" slot, disable PEG/PCI, and start adding new drives/re-configuring existing drives? I'm really not in the situation to rebuild my box, but I'm willing at at this point to put a BAND-AID® on to break the 2TB barrier. Thoughts? Any comments are welcome, thanks! Dan
  13. I don't believe UnRAID supports wireless cards. I'm using the Z87E-ITX board as well and it's been very solid. I tossed the wireless card into an old laptop and use the mini PCIe for a dual sata card. Great idea with adding a SATA card to the mini PCIe slot! Was that just plug and play? No extra settings or issues to get the additional drives up and running?
  14. I've precleared many many disks and this is the first time I'm noticing something about the Post-Read. All my array disks are spun up and they are being read from. What's going on? Have I never noticed that before? No writes are being done, just reads. Should I be concerned? putty window tells me this: ( 1,748,694,528,000 of 2,000,398,934,016 bytes read ) 109 MB/s Disk Temperature: 32C, Elapsed Time: 20:57:25 unMENU tells me this: Post-Read (1 of 3). 87% @ 41 MB/s (20:57:25) Thanks
