A much anticipated moment! A big congratulations to Tom(s), Eric and all those involved!

I'm happy with the mom/pop shop

I've been following the various virtualization threads since christmas with interest. My use of UnRaid is fairly classic, I use it as a storage server for my media content and it is running the holy trilogy of SAB, SB and CP through the current system of plugins. While I understand the need for a package manager for those with many plugins running, my situation is pretty straightforward and easily managable manually (though I've had conflicting versions of python and openssl for the three plugins above). I'm not the primary target group for virtualizing my server, but I am very interested in one aspect and application of this technology, namely running XBMC. My server and my win7 client (running xbmc) sits 4m next to my TV. Ideally, I would be able to switch of my win7 client and have only the server on for watching movies and tv shows. When I bought my server hardware in 2009, I had no virtualization in mind. I bought it because it was compatible with unRaid, based on recommendations on the forum. I have a Phenom X2 on a 780G motherboard, not IOMMU capable. What does this mean for me? If I would be running openelec in a VM, would it be able to call onto the onboar GPU to assist in movie rendering or not? I have a RF remote I currently use and is supported by Openelec. Would I be able to use that as well?

Nope, from Belgium as well.

You could try to increase the voltage to your ram modules. That sometimes helps, though most of times replacing the defective module is the only solution.

Don't put too much trust into BIOS detection of your hard drives. I have a malfunctioning sata port on the motherboard which gets detected by both BIOS and Unraid. Good you were able to isolate the origin of the issue.

The intel ICH7 southbridge does not support AHCI. http://support.asus.com/FAQ/Detail.aspx?SLanguage=en&no=B9C0B59B-4041-0B1F-3C36-A150246D0529&p=1&m=P5LD2-VM Try different configurations, let us know how it goes.

It could be the cable, or the sata channel or both. Maybe it's because of the bios settings. Be sure all the 'smart' stuff is disabled like RAID and JBOD. It's also better to have AHCI enabled.

Thank you for sharing this, very helpful.

Guys, his father passed away. Is it too much to show respect, stop the nagging and give him the time he needs? He'll come around and resume work.

Update: chaging the data cable had no effect, the drive kept red balling. So I used another sata port on my motherboard and the drive is still green since August 19th. Seems like I have a difficult or defect sata port.

But great work has been made by user ikosa: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=28873.0

The drive is still green, touching wood. I'll make a reiserfs check tonight just to be sure.

The drive is at location md1, so no similarities here. After the reboot, the reiserfs errors were gone, but the drive redballed. It's odd.
