damn, how time flies, feels like I just got unraid couple of months ago but infact it has been over 5 years now. Happy for the 7.0 progress :D
Ha yeah it sure does. Before we know it we will be talking about Unraid 8 lol !!
holy crap! this is where unraid becomes a complete home networking system. I am gobsmacked at the improvements.
Cannot wait for the stable version of Unraid 7!! So excited!
Hooray for Intel Arc GPU support, and awesome updates to the VM config options.
Great video as usual Spaceinvader!
Great video Ed. Informative as ever and I am going to install the beta on my spare server. Look forward to more vids on Unraid 7 both on Uncast and your own show.
love it ed! very well done, thank you
I really appreciate the visual tour of all the changes. Great presentation!
Thanks again Ed!!! Got to love Unraid!
Thanks for another great video SIO 👍😊
Some really great looking updates and the future of Unraid sounds exciting!
I'm currently running 5x SSD's in an XFS Unraid Array (LincStation N1). I thought about setting up as a POOL but I don't want to lose the ability to increase the size of my storage by adding new disks.
Once Unraid incorporates the (hopefully near future) ZFS RaidZ expansion capability, I'd luv to revisit my setup 👍
Great video on unraid 7 Ed! this is defiantly the best version of unraid so far :) Thanks for always sharing with us💖👍😎JP
Great improvements, can't wait for Unraid 7!
The option to migrate VMs is actually really beneficial for those running 24/7 services like a mail server. Live migration between two Unraid servers would be fantastic. I might even consider migrating my Proxmox cluster to Unraid if there were an option like "Automatically migrate VMs on server shutdown/reboot.
Keep up the good work ❤
Wow. Loaded with features a lot that I wasn’t expecting. I’m so excited, I can’t wait to run it on all of my servers.
Thanks for the video ... I can not wait to have it :-)
Outstanding . Thanks ..
Yes!!! I will install the beta asap!
snapshots are really awesome. great improvements overall.
I was just thinking i haven't heard of anything interesting lately from unraid. Then, this is possibly the most interesting release in a while.
Will Docker be upgraded to 26.1 or 27.0? 25.0.2 is from January 2024.
Glad to see that arrays are optional! My main setup is 8x22TB hard drives in a RAID 10 pool, so no longer needing a single drive to maintain an array is great! Also appreciate being able to have two pools used for primary and secondary storage and Mover can work between them.
Vielen Dank!
Nice video and look forward to the upgrade. Did we get the ability to alter the amount of RAM allocated to ZFS?
Finally.
The VM settings should have option to just assign number of cores rather than pinning them. You can do this in XML but would be nice to have that in gui.
Marvelous update, really want to try SLOG and L2ARC.
I've been wanting pretty much all of those features to do with VMs since I first got into unraid back in 2019.
Fantastic presentation, I'm curious when creating a snapshot is there a way of saving it to another location rather than the default vm location? my NVME space can be limiting
Nice development of the OS!
Is it possible to run sub pools as mirrors? If I run a special device for the metadata I really want that redundancy. 👍
Snapshots is the best feature !
Thanks for this. Are you buy any chance going to re-do any of your old tutorials for version 7? Like for instance, making Nextcloud accessible from the internet? I could never get that to work.
Love it ! Can we use evdev to easily switch keyboard znd mouse between two vms and the unraid host?
33:07 isn't windows 11 removing android emulation?
spaceinvader did you feel goofy staring at empty space for the segment in the beginning of the video where you are staring at the hologram of the unRAID dev/rep?
Can we spread shares across multiple ZFS pools now? I didn’t see that mentioned
Loving the new VM changes.
I also think ill stick with normal unraid array with double parity backup running a single zfs disk to make snapshots of all my SSD's. Being able to use random capacity drives is key for me.
I just need to finally figure out how to get GPU passthrough working for a windows VM and I can finally start playing some of my games again. Its a total S-show with outdated tutorials from various sources lol. Im stuck with virtual GPU :(
30:38 lol wtf is that AI image :D otherwise great video!
does someone know more on vm snapshots ? is it at the vdisk level (qcow2) or the underlying file system ? Can we export snapshot to backup the vm ?
7:48 any chance of the iso format, please?
Hey space could i please request you do an updated win 98 video - would be good to see for sure. Presumably you are using a pcie to pci bridge for your voodoo and soundcard for your win98 vm cheers
The blank screen on SeaBIOS drove me insane! Glad it is fixable now
Yeah totally agree :)
Is the only option still to boot from a single USB stick? I boot TrueNAS from a mirrored pair of trusty old 128GB MLC SSDs.
Before i could use same gpu for docker container and VM , when i used to start VM tye gpu used to get psssthrough to VM and when VM shutdown gpu back to containers , but now i have to manually do bind vfio at boot to psssthrough gpu to VM than unbind reboot again to use in docker container ..😢
Can we or will we ever get an option to add a share as a mounted drive in a VM through the UnRaid gui and not have to fiddle with other settings somewhere? Is this even theoretically possible?
Can we add ZFS pools to the array? That would be interesting. Let’s say if we have 2 three hdd pools, so six total drives, and each is z1. So that’s the storage capability of 4 of those drives. Let’s say each pool has 10tb drives so each pool has 20tb total storage. It’s be cool to be able to still add those pools to the array and have a parity drive that is 20tb. 😂
I’m sure this would be wildly impractical, but it would still be cool in theory.
Keep in mind that I obviously don’t know enough to be able to tell if this is possible.
Hope these new qemu command line stuff means MacInABox will be simplified 28:00
You said something about the Macinabox docker and scripts and the new unraid 7 ... a new macinabox tutorial maybe ?
Will we be finally able to passthrough iGPU (such as AMD Ryzen 5700G) to Windows VM?
With ZFS SLOGs and metadata vDevs now being a thing in the near future, can you use the same drives for both? Say you have a mirror vDev of two NVMe drives and you want to use that same vDev as both the metadata special device AND the SLOG? I'm limited in the number of devices I can connect to my server.
Technically it is possible within TrueNAS by partitioning the devices first. However it is strongly discouraged. I would be surprised if Unraid supports such a config within the GUI.
@@mwahlert Yeah, I figured that out after I asked.
Paying for a license should give me the option to decide to use my m2 intel ax211 WiFi card in my nas. If I get trouble I can plug the lan cable in when ever I want.
I wonder what the new pricing model will be
Finally i can migrate my Nas Server from truenas
6:47 isn't there a plugin that does this?
31:50 would be cool if the templates could be shared with other people via a link or such and when the recipient puts in the template link, it downloads and thats it.
I was hoping to see the ability to use the same GPU in multiple VMs. (Unraid 8 ?? :p)
27:50
Wait, can we run older GPUs in a virtual machine? I have an Nvidia GT210, will it run in a Windows 10 VM for example? When I tried to set this up, I got a black screen too.
Yep you sure can now. When creating the vm use seabios then put the below in the template in the advanced tuning options. No more black screen 😃
@@SpaceinvaderOne Thank you! Sorry, turns out I had an Nvidia 8500 GT video card.
Unfortunately, I have strange artifacts when I boot into a virtual machine (Win XP). The image consists of console characters that was previously on the screen from unRAID. This only happens on the boot screen, in the system I only see a black screen. Connecting in parallel with VNC shows that the video card has error status code 10 in Device Manager. Drivers are installed manually, the installer did not let me install them correctly. I also tried enabling VFIO for the video card, also played with "unsafe interrupts" for it. Even pulled the vbios from it thanks to your script, using it didn't do anything either. Have you had similar problems? Maybe the problem is that this is the first and primary video card in the server?
my arc gpu isnt picked up in beta 2...
:O I can do what the kidz likes to do!
First!
XD
There was talk of a built in file manager, is that still happening do you know?
Yes, the dynamic file manager was integrated into the OS: docs.unraid.net/unraid-os/release-notes/7.0.0/
Wow. Amazing sneak peak of UnRAID 7.
When is the expected release date?
7 beta is out now
@@chuckhemsburg6974 Yeah, I know. I mean where is the expected version 7 release date (not the beta)?
@@joelfrojmowiczYou should know by now they don’t disclose Finals and it could be 10 or so betas like every other release.
@@joelfrojmowicz we have to get through the beta's and rc's be for we get to stable releases my guess would be in about 3 to 4 months or less depends on how many bugs and things that need fixing and features that they add and other things like that'
Just did the update and completely got locked out. I can get in via shell, can’t via web 🤦🏼♂️
Please hide the server icon edit button when the padlock is green.
Will Multiple array also added in unraid 7?
@frankwong9486 i'm also looking forward to having multiple arrays as well' hopefully we will get it by V7.1.0 :)
Still no way to install unraid on an SSD? I have a spare 60GB ssd that would be perfect :(
On behalf of the uncivilized world, I thank you for pronouncing zee rather than zed. 9:08
I think I'll still use unraid array over zfs
He said new pricing? What does that mean..
When?
@@uncastshow Its in the video ... I also heard it. Its simply referring to the new pricing model, the new website, and the v7 naming because so much changed. Somewhere at the start, do you even lissen to the videos you post?
Ah I just swapped from unraid to truenas
Noooo I did not see pools that could be jbods or unraids. Also being able to and cache drives to any pool. ZFS is cool but it really really does not fit the use case of the home gamer. You will have lots of people crying once they realize there is no way to recover your data form still good drives.
As someone who uses lots of questionable drives that I only use in shares that are for data I don't care if I lose have the confiance that if i lose those 3 drives the rest of my data will still be intact is really important.
Also with the new refurbished market for seagate drives I expect drive failures will become more common.
The overfocus on ZFS for the last years is really pushing it. Its like the whole bread and butter, what made Unraid special compared to Proxmox and other solutions. But from the dev point of view, the Array is not worth it anymore, and Unraid is becoming more a clone of those system that rely on ZFS. Expect, they are FREE (and offer more / different features, again, FOR FREE)!
These day i simply advice people to use snapraid, sure, its missing life parity but most of use are running ... lots of mostly read content "isos" so again, what is Unraid their advantage again? I simply do not get it ... The ignoring Multi Array and well, here is a new price model for more $$$ ... FFS, just sell multi array as a extra feature, just make a 30 drive limit (the old "Unlimited") and add a other licence type for people that want to run more drives without resorting to multiple servers nas.
Anyway / rant off ...
Final Notice: you must release unRAID 7 immediately and it has to be extremely stable 🤔🤨🙄😳😲😉👍
Raid Z is a good start but totally bad to use. Why would i add a brand new HDD to have safety but at the same time have my HDD running empty. It’s getting hours for no reason which can give me a fault safety HDD. U gotta rethink this concept.
5:57 please fix the spelling or use a different name like starred or favs.
I live in the UK and here the normal spelling is "Favourites" here. However in the US its "Favorites." Neither is incorrect, they are simply regional variations.
Some say Zed, others Zee 🤪😜
A bit of a sad development actually. I don’t understand why people choose Unraid to use ZFS or virtualisation. Other solutions already does this. Unraid could focus on the things others don’t do.
