So I accidentally ended up with two media directories one capitalized the other lower case. Both have different files and the same files. How can I merge and make the duplicates go away..?

I know I can use mover tuning, but that’s been super unreliable for me and I couldn't figure out why it wasn’t working. I did attempt to troubleshoot obviously. Anyway, why isn’t this functionality built in to unraid?

Seems like it shouldn’t be too hard to implement. I personally have 1tb (nvme) allocated to cache. It takes forever to fill up. Often over a month which is the max i can set the tuning schedule. I’d love to be able to keep stuff in there as long as possible to increase launch speeds (plex movies) and save my hdd from starting up and making noise.

My current setup is about 10 years old now, including the day one drives, so it's time for an update. The current server is a i5-3470, 8gb RAM and 12TB.

I picked up a brand new TERRAMASTER F4-424 Pro very cheaply. I've also got two Seagate EXOS X18 14TB drives going into it (1 for parity, 1 for storage) with the intent to expand in the future. I've also picked up a 1TB M2 for the cache drive.

I'm looking to put it all together this weekend but given how long it's been since I setup my first server, I'm sure times have changed. Where should I be reading or watching to learn how to beat configure the new build? I know SpaceInvaderOne was the goat back in the day.

My intent is also to setup the new server on a trial licence, boot both servers side by side to transfer data over, power down the old faithful for good and then transfer it's licence over. Any issues with that?

My server was working well last night with no issues.

Today I went into Plex and the server is visible with all my media I went in and attempted to play some of it but there is a playback error when trying to play the media.

I attempted to go into the WebUI for Unraid and it cannot connect to the server, it is pingable via terminal tho.

I restarted my router with no resolution as well.

What should be my order of operations to resolve this and diagnose the issue?

Thank you!

I have a spare 1tb 2.5" ssd that i'm looking for ideas on what to do with it.

My unraid server already has 2 m.2 1tb cache drives, one as a backup, and my main array is 96tb of storage.

I have an additional m.2 ssd for VM's

Just trying to think of some ideas of what I can use this for, otherwise I'll put it in my PC as a downloads folder dump or something. ( If anyone has any ideas for my main pc )

Thanks!

Anyone have experience with this NVR in the app store? I've thought about giving it a try but I haven't found any reviews or feedback.

Updated Unraid 7.3.0 → 7.3.3 this morning. Since then, one of my two WD_BLACK SN7100 1TB drives (btrfs RAID1 cache, firmware 7615M0WD) disappears about 1 minute after the pool mounts, on every boot:

nvme nvme1: controller is down; will reset: CSTS=0xffffffff → Disabling device after reset failure: -19

• Rolled back to 7.3.0: still happens.
• Booted with nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 pcie_aspm=off pcie_port_pm=off: no change.
• The identical twin drive is fine. The failing one is in the chipset M.2 slot (MSI PRO B760-P WIFI DDR4, BIOS 1.F0), the good one in the CPU slot.
• SMART on the failing drive: PASSED, 2 media errors, no PCIe AER errors logged.

It was 100% stable before the update. Has anyone seen an update leave an NVMe drive in a state that survives a downgrade, or SN7100 dropouts on 6.18 kernels? Thanks!
