    I was in a very similar situation as you when I decided to just go with Unraid and build my own. I got a Fractal Design 804 case and was able to put very modest parts in it (i5 6500) and it performs so much better. And now there’s no headaches with drives. I still have my 918+ but it’s only used as a local backup for my unraid. If you’re willing to shift perspective a little it can be very worthwhile. My small opinion…

    That is an option I’ve been thinking about but I’ve never used it, I’m not a dev. Maybe I’ll look at it more seriously since it does sound like what would work best, I’d really apprecieate the versioning. Thanks!












  • Right now I have 32 active stacks running and a good number of them create at least one other container like a database. So I’m running around 60+ separate containers. The machine has maybe an i5 6500 or so in it with 32g of ram. I use unraid as the nas platform but I do all the docker stuff manually. It’s plenty fast for what I need so far… :)
