I haven't done a major hardware upgrade for many years and am just checking in before I get started. I'm currently running:
Intel core 2 quad - q9550
Gigabyte G33M-DS2R
8GB DDR2 RAM
17 data disks
2 parity disks
1 SSD cache
LSI SAS9201-16e PCI Express to 6Gb/s 16-Port Adapter
I'm moving to:
2x XEON E5-2620 V3
SUPERMICRO X10DRL-iT
16GB DDR4 RAM
All of the same disks and SAS adapter
I don't run any VMs and the primary dockers are Plex, Deluge, Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, NZBGET and OpenVPN.
I have backed up my flash drive and appdata, printed out the main, dashboard, and docker screens, and made sure everything is currently working as it should be. Will likely be taking the plunge on Wednesday and swapping out the MBD, CPU and RAM. Anything else I need to do or be concerned about before I make the switch? Figured for once in my Unraid life I would ask the question before I have an issue!
Thank you!
