Yeah. That was my fault. I changed it only in my reply subject header post. Not in the thread subject.

My modified price was $550 so that's $50 less than what you estimate it's street value is worth. I don't have time to re-evaluate all the prices right now but I think with the unraid license it's a great deal at this price. Especially considering the design and build time. That may not be worth anything to the natives of this forum but for some it is very useful. As an outsider it took me weeks to spec, order, and build a very solid box. If it doesn't sell here I know it will elsewhere.

Lowered the price by $50.

Yes. Still available. In the San Francisco bay area.

Solid performing and really quiet unRaid server. Sits right next to my TV and can't be heard from 2ft away. Built for silence and expansion. No cache drive currently. Avg. 60Mb down, 40Mb up. Really great case (LianLi Q25b) with lots of room for expansion (7 3.5 inch bay) Fantastic motherboard: ASRock FM2A88X-ITX+ - (6 SATA 6gb onboard ports) AMD A4 5400 3.4ghz Dual Core proc 8gb of DDR3-1600 Kingston RAM 2x2TB Red WD drives 2 Noctua fans Superquiet 300w Seasonic SFX PS (review http://www.silentpcreview.com/article286-page1.html) Unraid+ License PCPartPicker Build Info and upload speeds (1st via FTP, 2nd via AFP) Prices in PCPartPicker are as of today (2/25/14). PCPartPicker has inaccurate info about the Seasonic SFX power-supply. It shipped with an alternate backplate and works wonderfully. http://imgur.com/a/5oGcP Assembled in October 2013. Used very lightly. Ended up keeping a more expensive desktop computer that I had planned to offload and the UnRaid features are redundant for me right now. Passing it on for someone else to enjoy who will get more use from it. I'll take Paypal and will ship anywhere in the US or Canada. Shipping should be around $30 for Fedex ground I would say.

Great. Installed using the Trolley fixes. My gems output was *** CURRENT SOURCES *** http://rubygems.org/ but the install still couldn't complete until I installed the ca-certs. Thanks.

Sorry if this is directly related to the above post and I'm just not savvy enough to get around the problem. Error installing currently looks like this: ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'bundler' (>= 0), here is why: Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (https://s3.amazonaws.com/production.s3.rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz) Same error occurs after entering the following: gem sources -a http://rubygems.org/ gem sources -r https://rubygems.org/ Do I need to add the gem repos to a text file or is it sufficient to simply enter them sequentially in the terminal? Thanks. Looking forward to evolving to this nice interface.

So in a scenario where I am writing a 200gb file to a 120gb cache drive, the mover kicking in won't effect the perceived MB/s write speeds I am seeing on my local desktop?

Thanks guys. Very helpful info. I didn't mention that this is a living room system so perceivable noise is more important than size of the storage provided as long as the size of storage doesn't impact performance, and yes I do also plan to put my plug-in user data on the cache. So two pluses for SSD in this case (noise and plugin performance). Is it reasonable to conclude that when the mover's kick in you receive similar performance to writing directly to an array with parity enabled (minus the cache boost assisting in write performance)?

Hi all. Pre-purchase question. I haven't bought an unraid license yet but I'm learning about cache drives and considering a small SSD for this purpose (120gb or less). My NAS won't get huge parallel data streams from multiple users. Mostly just one desktop and my HTPC system accessing simultaneously. I'd like to have a cache drive to benefit from the perceived transfer speeds and I'm thinking I would probably have the cache drive dump it's contents to the array every couple of hours. Can someone elaborate as to what the negatives/positives might exist between a small SSD vs a larger WD Red drive? For example, if I fill the SSD in my 2hr block, what perceivable difference would I see. In general, I'm trying to answer if this occasional performance hit might be outweighed by overall performance improvements delivered by the SSD. I'm specifically comparing a 1gb Red @ $100 to 120gb SSD @ $90 or so. Thanks very much.

Fresh install, new system, noob driver. 5.0 basic, single drive test array, no parity, and no cache (obviously). Only installed the new webgui and CouchPotato (on this attempt). Previous attempts have included more plugs, but I'm simpilfying. Plugins folder just has its statement about 'A new method of providing a list of compatible plugins is in development. Check back later.' CouchPotato loads in the syslog. Don't know why Couchpotato (or other plugins aren't showing up). Is there a way to unload the new Webgui for testing purposes? Thanks. syslog.pdf
