So I have a Quadro RTX4000 that works splendid 99.9% of the time. Sometimes though my family complains that most movies will simply not play. When I check the Plex Logs I see: TPU: hardware transcoding: enabled, but no hardware decode accelerator found A restart of the plex container does not fix this, only a complete restart of unraid get's me back to transcodes working. Now I remember for years we sometimes had issues where containers would have the ability to communicate with the video card, but not transcode. I'm assuming this is the same thing. is there a way for me to forcefully reset the video card without a reboot? Right now I have a script running that emails me when this starts occurring so I can reboot it myself. If I can script the resolution without a reboot, that would be preferable. Drivers I'm running: NVIDIA-SMI 535.104.05 Driver Version: 535.104.05 CUDA Version: 12.2 Thanks!

Resurrecting this thread to see if this old patch works on the newer builds. I have a different card on the way with LSI firmware but like to see if I can get this 8003 card working.

Wondering this as well

Hello, Am running two unRaid 6 servers, and I'm curious if the Quad Port Intel 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller is supposed to be supported? The host does not seem to see the interface. thanks!

So.... I don't actually want to backup my user shares, but is it possible to setup crashplan to backup to the mnt/share location? I have a secondary tower that I would like to use purely just for backups, but I want the storage to go to the array not the cache disks. thanks!

The point is that I, and probably others, would worry about it. Yes, there's a two year warranty, but the fact is that they specify a two year warranty constrained by a ridiculously low power on hours figure, bearing in mind that they also promote (in the first document quoted) the drives as suitable for home servers and NAS devices, which are typically powered 24/7. It simply does not make sense. I would generally prefer to buy drives and other parts where I know for sure what I am getting. I agree, I had bought the first drive on the basis of their "Best-fit applications" list and that it had a 2 year warranty, it was when I was considering buying a second that I looked further (I wanted to check the power requirements) and saw the odd 2400 hour issue and this has made me stop to consider what to do. Heck I'm spending the first 100 hours (4.2%) of the drive's life just running a 2-cycle preclear... Regards, Stephen I'm sure I could read the fine print on my things I buy on a daily basis that would make me ponder this. If we were talking about a drive manufacturer that sells 1000 drives a month, and get's 10 RMA's a month, then I would worry about this. With as many drives as Seagate sells, there is no easy/feasible way for them to check every drive upon receipt, and approve/deny the warranty according to power on hours. If Seagate suddenly changes their RMA procedures, then I would worry.

To me, all this is moot, the drive has a 2 year warranty. In the last 6 months I had 6 1.5TB Seagate 7200 RPM drives, and a couple 2 TB Seagate drives which were nearing their warranty expiration. Of these drives 6 of them in total had high re-allocated sectors near or above 100. For each of these I requested an RMA, and received a replacement drive. Some of the Power On hours were very high, in the 20,000-28,000 hour area and not once did they balk at this. I wouldn't worry about this one bit. -Marcus

You could try using just a 4GB VMDK and installing unRAID there?

No, but the price is quite reasonable http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811235039&Tpk=zalman%20MS800 Nice looking case, too bad they don't have a 12 bay full tower.

Just wait, no doubt it's because they will put out an Antec 1200 Two, like the ANtec 300 Too and Antec 900 Two, which have hardware support for USB 3.0 at the front. I love the Antec 900s (got 3) but you do need to flatten the 4 tabs to fit in the 5x3 cages. Once in they slide in and out no problem. I am now looking to replace 120mm fans for quieter ones. The Antec 1200 is actual on Version 3 now. It finally came into stock, and I got it last week. It has the tabs as well, sliced myself pretty good taking them out. The 2 icy dock cages I have so fit perfectly. Of course, the upgrades resulted in then going to Microcenter buying an AsRock Extreme 4 board and an i3 3225 proc. It's running much quieter now, and I have connections for all the fans, and for USB 3.0 up front <old board had no USB3>. Pictures to follow soon.

Interesting. I already have an Icy Dock 5 in 3, so I would prefer to keep them the same. What would be the best case to use 4 of the Icy dock 5 in 3's? The Antec 1200? I like the Antec 1200 but it appears to be out of stock everywhere. Thanks!

Can anyone confirm if the Xigmatek case, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811815011, will hold 4 x Icy Dock 5 in 3's? Currently have 1 Icy dock bay on the way, and have 9 drives currently <1 Parity, 1 Cache, 7 Data>. I want to ensure the next case I buy allows me to expand to 20 drives as needed. Thanks!
