A nice solid cheap build, I have two M1015’s in my build actually and they have been going strong for a number of years, I love them!. I am not so sure on the choice of 10 x 3TB drives TBH, not what I would of done, I wonder what he paid for them.
This is a great video with some really nice real world scenarios when using zfs with unRAID.
I have now switched over to voyager for Android, like the side swipe actions
I think the answer is as Ed says, horses for courses, it all depends on what you want to get out of a nas and the amount of time and effort you are willing to spend.
A good question, that really depends on how you use ZFS, if you are creating single disk zpools then the advantages over XFS are limited to compression and snapshots (i think), if you are using ZFS in a more traditional sense of multiple drives then things get more interesting and you can use the whole range of features included in ZFS - disclaimer i have extremely limited knowledge of ZFS so i am being vague on purpose, check out Spaceinvader One’s videos on the subject for much better understanding.
yep, a lot has gone into release 6.12, i am going to give it 1 month since the last release then go for it, i might then give it a further 6 months and then switch filesystem for my cache drive to zfs.
i get what you are saying, but a picture does tell a thousand words, you just cant beat visual walkthrough vs a long list of instructions, the only downside with video walkthroughs is they can date quite quickly, whereas a written guide is much easier to keep up to date.
Spaceinvader does have a great gift of explaining detailed technical problems in a easy to understand and precise manner, big kudos to him.
Is that IOS or Android?
FUSE has always been slow, no big surprise here, and TBH I’m not overly concerned with lightning fast writes, I just want consistent read speeds, that’s more important to me.
Ahh right I see, so you are using mover as a means of reducing power usage, that’s interesting, power is super expensive where i live so that is a factor for me, i have spin down set reasonably tightly, but not insane, i think its 1 hour idle at the mo.
Well we are now at 100+ subscribers, that’s kinda cool, I hope we make it to 1000, I think that maybe the tipping point as to whether this is sustainable.
Thanks for posting, i will be honest here, I haven’t enabled mover in a VERY long time, I rely on the post processing of each app to move the media to the correct place on the array after download is complete, and for me this works well enough for me not to have to use mover, am I the odd one out here?.
I don’t think it’s possible to do an in place switch of filesystem, and even if you could would you trust it? I personally wouldn’t.
LOL, fair enough.
If I moved to protonVPN, what all is involved in reconfiguring? I assume it’s more complicated than just changing my VPN credentials to a different provider.
There is some current challenges with ProtonVPN, see here:- https://forums.unraid.net/topic/75539-support-binhex-qbittorrentvpn/?do=findComment&comment=1278114
Also, I assume port forwarding is required for the container (deluge one) to work?
Required?, no, recommended, yes, if you dont have a working incoming port then your dl/ul speeds will be slower.
Also, thank you so much for the work you do. I’m disabled and have to use eye gaze technology - having a reliable container for deluge has been a god send for me.
Good luck my friend, being disabled is not easy, I have first hand experience of that, so i’m glad i’m doing my tiny part to make your life easier.
If you want an easy life, then my advise is signup to PIA, i have good support for PIA and port forwarding is all managed for you, but the choice of provider is completely yours, some people don’t trust PIA and that is their prerogative.
Hey no probs!, thank for joining, for any Android users out there I’m quite enjoying ‘Jerboa’ it just got a ton of bugfixes applied, it’s not as slick as RIF but still it’s not half bad either!.
I created a VERY cheap and cheerful server in the early days (unraid 5.x) just so I could get two USB external drives out from under my TV in the lounge, and it slowly grew from there.
Is there a setting that can fix this issue in the container?
sorry, nope this is controlled from the vpn provider.
If not, I assume I would need to do a new container using a different VPN?
you would need to find a new vpn provider that permits port forwarding and reconfigure your container
Jackett 😁 no seriously, Jackett
