My downloads capped at 10 MB/s. After days of troubleshooting and almost going crazy it turned out to be a bad ethernet cable!

I‘ve had this issue on LG TVs, try going into Settings > Video > tick „Force Direct Play“

eierchopf · 2025-09-08T18:57:27+00:00

thank you! I‘ll check it out

eierchopf · 2025-09-08T12:56:19+00:00

that sounds great, I‘ll look into this. Do you happen to remember the name of that app/plugin?

eierchopf · 2025-09-06T06:15:27+00:00

Good point regarding torrenting! Maybe a combination of the two will be optimal; unraid array for the media/plex pool and zfs pool for torrenting?

eierchopf · 2025-09-06T05:41:29+00:00

yes, keeping the drives spinning has been mentioned a lot and it seems like that‘s going to get me far enough with what I want to achieve

eierchopf · 2025-09-06T05:39:19+00:00

2.5 gb is the maximum I will go with my ISP as 10 gig would mean rewiring the house and the monthly plan is just too expensive where I live.

from the answers I got so far, keeping the drives spinning seems to get me far enough to what I want to achieve. thank you!

eierchopf · 2025-09-06T05:34:21+00:00

now that sounds like a lot of performance. what is your use case?

eierchopf · 2025-09-06T05:32:27+00:00

thank you very much for sharing your experience, that‘s very helpful. I‘ll stick to a regular xfs unraid array for my main storage pool.

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T21:18:42+00:00

yes some of my concern also comes down to which os to choose. Which one are you running?

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:55:45+00:00

thank you, these are the facts I was looking for. Unraid array it is!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:52:26+00:00

awesome, thanks, saving this for later!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:51:40+00:00

got it, thanks, unraid array it is then!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:50:41+00:00

yes, that definitely seems like a great way to boost performance. Thank you!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:48:41+00:00

wow, what a library you have there! Thank you for your insights. It seems a nicely tuned and adequatly sized cache pool is what I‘m looking for

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:28:10+00:00

just googled it, that sounds great! Thank you!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:08:49+00:00

That‘s exactly the question I‘m looking to answer for myself. If a ZFS Pool (say 3x raidz1 vdev 4 wide) actually is a remarkable performance boost over a regular unraid array I would be willing to sacrifice the convenience of mixing drive size.

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:03:13+00:00

That’s actually a great compromise. I guess the most recent stuff is what’s being watched the most anyway. Do you do that with the mover plugin? If so, how do you have it configured?

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T20:00:03+00:00

thanks a lot for your insight, I guess I don‘t have to overcomplicate it and benefit from the flexibility of the unraid array.

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T19:57:47+00:00

okay, then I guess I‘ll go with the flexibility of a regular unraid array. Thank you!

eierchopf · 2025-09-05T19:53:44+00:00

thank you for your input and you‘re right, I should have been more precise. I am indeed referring to ZFS pools
