Hi, so today i wanted to bring back some old memories and revisit Windows XP, so I didnt have a dedicated PC for that so I downloaded an ISO of XP now i gave it 1 GB of ram and 30 GB HDD Space, When I enter the setup and it says Setup is starting or something like that this BSOD just pops up i dont know because ive tried checking the ISO file to see if it was good and not corrupted, but everything was good. So can anyone bring me a solution on a VM and can you just Share this post so we can come up with the final solution. Ive been searching throught the internet and of course everything was outdated from like 2002, and that was on a real PC, not a VM. So does anyone know how to fix it on a VM (BTW i use VirtualBox for anyone wondering) Goodbye.

I'm partically new to the vm side on pc. But today I decided to install and try out macOS Big Sur on virtualbox VM and see if i can use it as my daily OS for studying since its more minimal and less clutter. I've assigned 4cores and 8gb of ram to my VM but when I start the VM it's really laggy and can be considered unusable. I'm running a i7 8750H and 16gb of ram so allocating 4cores should not be a problem ? I tried to allocated only 2 cores and 8gb of ram to the vm but it is also laggy and hard to use. I've already enabled hardware acceleration and Vt-X. Besides that, there's no audio output on the vm system so please does anyone has similar encounters

I'm trying to rearrange my vm solution to save on storage space. I recall in one of linus early multi gamers videos he mentioned using differential images with local write back from a read only golden image as a solution, and I'm somewhat aware of cluster aware file systems but I'm not super jazzed about the idea of switching up file systems, I'd probably just make another sub-vm that runs like a share and channel everything through that. I'm wondering though if anyone has tips or suggestions or knows more on the subject? The explicit idea here is similar to multi gamers in that I have 3 to 4 people using the exact same files at the exact same time but they really only need to read the files and won't be updating or writing back much, which could potentially be solved with a local differential image for any write backs. Anyone that can point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Hey this is my first post here and I'm looking for someone who has a little bit more experience than myself. We set up an old computer as a NAS and Media Server our config: Intel core i7 860 clocked at 2.80GHz Asrock P55 Extreme motherboard 8GB Ram we're currently running Ubuntu as the boot/host os and using qemu-kvm as the hypervisor for running FreeNAS and a Windows 10 vm - the Windows 10 vm is for running itunes because that's what we always use and we don't want to switch to plex given we use apple TVs and other apple devices etc. We are currently looking to upgrade this setup because let's be honest it's very dated. We would go to a 6 core hyperthreaded intel CPU and 16GB of ram and we would be able to use the VT-x capabilities on the new CPU. What we would like to know is if we could ditch our current router and buy an intel ethernet card with like 4 RJ45 jacks on it and run pfsence in another vm on this same computer safely. We know it could be done we just would like to know if there would be any additional security risks of running it in this configuration vs a completely separate pfsence box to use as a router. Thanks so much to anyone who replies to this!

When a GPU, for example, is passed through to a VM, and the VM is shut down, will the GPU be drawing idle power or no power at all?

I have had a Plex server running on a QNAP device, and although the NAS itself is fine, I don't think that the Plex server on it is the best way to go. I have been told that running a Plex server on a VM is one idea, and although the networking side of that I understand how to do, I am not sure if that is the best way to go. What about GPU Hardware acceleration? Is that something you can port through on a VM? What is the best value solution?

So I recently bought a bluray player (LG BH16NS40 manufactured before 2015) and I wanted to use it inside my Windows 10 VM to rip blurays. However the drive wont recognize and dvds, even non blurays inside the vm and makemkv wont recognize the drive. I plugged it in my physical pc and the drive works and makemkv recognized the drive. So now I am wondering if anybody here knows a drive that will work with makemkv inside a vm. I know this might not be quite the right subreddit, but I am desperate because I am working on this issue for 3 days now. So any help will be really appreciated!

Hello! So I've been running an Opencore Hackintosh on Ryzen for about 2 years and, for the most part, it's been working fine. Recently though, I've run into some issues with internet drop outs and my Adobe applications are sketchy AF, so I'm looking for a more stable solution. I remember watching the "Run macOS on any PC" video from a few years ago and was hoping to get some assistance. Current build specs are as follows: CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 (plan to upgrade to either 3800X or 5700X) GPU: R9 380 4GB (plan to upgrade to 5600XT or 6600XT) MoBo: ASRock Phantom Gaming 4 SSD: WD Black SN750 1TB HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB (Time machine backup) + Seagate Barracuda 2TB (overspill/mass storage (currently empty)) I managed to get my current system up and running first time, so I'm not a total novice, but I'm looking for an easy-to-follow guide of how to get macOS running in a VM on Linux with support for Adobe apps, Ableton, and other productivity tools. I am not planning to use this for gaming at all, and I do not want to use the Linux side for anything. Ideally, booting directly into macOS would be ideal, but not essential. My main goal is to get as much performance on the macOS VM as possible while also running stably and to keep all my data from my current system. A few questions: Do I need a dedicated GPU for each OS? Will hardware acceleration work in macOS? Will I be able to restore my files from my Time Machine backup? Is there a better alternative to what I'm proposing? (I realise it's been a good few years since the LTT video came out, so maybe there's a more stable/easier way???) I'd really appreciate any guidance or suggestions! Thanks in advance

Hey, this is my first post, so I´m already sorry upfront if I´m doing anything horribly wrong. I read all the community standards and hope to be at the right place - if not, feel free to guide me. I´m an absolut noob regarding forums. Build: I´m using my first gaming computer, built in 2014. Sadly my GTX 760 died after installing Windows 10 and I´ve literally tried everything to make it work, but nah. Code 43 - seems dead or at least not worth the 80 bucks that it´s worth on the used market here. Fortunately, I built the system with an i7. So currently it can run on the onboard-graphics. CPU: i7 4790 RAM: 8 GB DDR3 BOOT-DRIVE: 64 GB SanDisk Flash-Thumbdrive with OpenMediaVault installed on it DATA-DRIVE: Currently only one Samsung QVO SSD 1 TB - it was laying around here and as I got frustrated while fixing my GPU, the NAS idea came up yep, a NAS with one drive - laugh about it. i would probably as well - but yea, as i said, i was really frustrated ^^ and my backups are currently on my running systems and on external hard drives. just waiting for black friday to come around for some deals mb POWER SUPPLY: 500W - is it even possible to put a newer GPU into it? GPU: If possible with the power supply that´s in the build, I would get a used one. Any recommendations what I should lookout for? And at what price point are the recommended GPUs considered "a good deal"? I obviously don´t want any harsh bottlenecks or overpay when I can get a similar GPU brand new for a little more. Budget (including currency): not planned Country: Germany Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: [Currently]: - NAS connected via SMB as a simple shared folder [Planned]: - NAS for backing up all my data on workstation, laptop, tablet and phone - Cloudstorage so I´m having access on the data on every device wherever I am (Nextcloud would be neat) - I want to switch from Notion to a self hosted alternative that should run on it - VaultWarden as password manager - Implementing Cloudron to install Guacamole, Nextcloud and other stuff - your ideas are very welcome I know quite a lot of workloads for an i7-4790 - but I´m the only concurrent user. Maybe sometimes my gf in addition - but most of the times my gf connects while i´m sitting next to her. so really there is only one concurrent user. [Ideas and stuff I heard about but don´t really know if it´s possible ^^] - PiKVM and PiHole (everybody talks about them, but I dont know if and how that would be useful for me) - Jellyfin (everybody as well talks about it - but it seems a bit shady. whats going on there?) [Current Problems and considerations] - As I´m storing sensitive data of my company and clients, I need it to be really safe. I already encrypted the whole drive and I´m only allowing users to gain access + the client data folder is not browseable - so you dont know that its even there unless you type in the actual name The SSH and SMB Ports are all changed from default - but is this safe enough? I don´t want anybody of my home network to gain access of this client data, let alone somebody from outside. - Guacamole or ManageEngine EndpointCentral to be able to remotely access my workstation via my iPad from anywhere - Is it safe to run data on nextcloud through a vm? Somewhere when I learned about this whole NAS-topic I read that you should´nt run your nas and store your data on a VM. Makes sense to me. But everywhere I read about for example Nextcloud or Plex, they run it through Proxmox, which is, correct me if I´m wrong, running containers of Nextcloud. So basically it´s on a VM as well, right? I know that these are a lot of questions - Of course I did some research myself, but either they´re not talking about the same problem or they´re talking about the problem, but start to write traditional chinese after the first answer - impossible for a newbie to understand. So I´m hoping somebody in here can shed some light into the darkness ^^ Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Sorry for my foreign english and if I did something wrong regarding the forum guidelines. Thank you for any help in advance!

Budget (including currency): Not sure, I want to be efficient, and I want to be able to accomplish my goals while also not needing to upgrade next year. Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Here is what I am thinking so far https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MyqssL Goals •Learn containers & VM through networks, proxmox etc. •Actually have a NAS, rather then host Plex on my single gaming rig. Needs •VM of Ubuntu to host the following containers (but certainly not limited too) -Plex -Pi-Hole -Guacamole -Cloud (of some sort, using the TrueNAS storage listed later) -Torrent -VPN(hard maybe) -Home Automation -Generally anything else that I might find fun to mess with.. I am trying to learn, and thats kinda the overall goal of this build. •VM for TrueNAS •VM for windows Work PC. This is for privacy, so my work cannot spy on my day to day. I'd likely end up just guacomoleing this VM, then logging into it anytime I need to work. I don't want to add my windows account to my main rig. •VM for labs/fun/learning. Maybe I'll throw Kali, or Ubuntu on here. Who knows. This will be my for fun/experiment VM. mess around with various coding, containers, whatever. Lets break & rebuild. • Firewall Questions •Do I even need a GPU at all? I don't intend to do a lot (if any) transcoding with plex. My bluray rips are 4k with 80+ bitrate, and 100% of the time are directplay.. maybe a super rare time I might travel and want to watch, but I highly doubt it, it'd be nice to maybe have the option? •If I do need a GPU, and I passthrough the GPU to the VM hosting the container of Plex, then will that effect proxmox? I know that once you pass through a GPU that the main machine can no longer use it. Which is fine since the server will be running headless. BUT if I run AMD, and it has no onboard chipset... And the GPU is in the VM, then will that screw me over on proxmox? not really sure about that part. •anyone have experience with ebay HDD's? Found a surplus store selling 10TB drives at 50% of the price. Its really really really tempting. If I run Raidz1, maybe I'd be ok? •Is 1 TB of NVMe good for proxmox hosting various machines that I have listed. I think it should be.. Was thinking that if I ran out of space I could simply get a 2nd 1TB NVMe drive and that should be fine. I wanted to stick with NVMe for holding the VM's for the speed. I feel like I might be over building this rig, and I know its very easy to over build and spend too much. Really any advice would be appreciated. (the end goal would be to make my current gaming rig, i6600k & 1060ti my HTPC, that will essentially be a client slave for plex/kodi/Stream remote play. Use the server to host all of my media files & VM's. Then build a new gaming rig in the next year that plays all my games, then remotes them over to the client..)

Hey I am looking to build a smallish array to house some virtual machines as a small homelab. I have a computer with a 12 core cpu and 128gb ram, but I am not quite sure what would be the best way to build a raid arry. I have an boot nvme ssd and two 1tb sata ssds for some fast storage, but I am going to need more space in order to really utilize all of that cpu and ram. What drives would you guys recommend for this kind of an build? SAS or Sata is fine. Yes I know that HDD's are not blazing fast compared SSD's but it does not matter to me.

Hello all, I have a 2019 16" MacBook Pro. I currently have Bootcamp installed for gaming purposes while on the go, however when it comes to productivity, macOS is my preferred operating system. Unfortunately, my job requires a program called BlueBeam which no longer has a macOS version, this forces me to use a VM when I need to look at the program. I tried the ever popular VirtualBox, however Windows 10 clients don't appear to have video drivers on macOS hosts leaving the Windows VM unusable. Needing a field computer quickly, I was forced to try out Parallels on a free trial and do an inspection with it, it went surprisingly well. The VM has a Travel Mode which saves on power consumption, something very important when a 16" MacBook Pro is using its Radeon graphics. Parallels also seems to have a great video driver for office work with perfect retina scaling. My only problem with Parallels is that its a costly subscription at $80/y. So my question is, are there any alternatives to VirtualBox and Parallels that are affordable/free with good video drives for office work. Thank you.

A Potential Dual-1366 Machine
wpirobotbuilder posted a blog entry in Personal PC/Storage/Infrastructure/Network
In terms of raw performance, you can pick up some older dual-socket CPUs that'll beat out modern quad cores at the same price point (though they'll use more power). The build will probably be a ZFS storage box at first, and if I upgrade later on I might use it to host virtual machines or as a computing node or something. Specs: Intel x5650 @2.66 GHz (x2) - Each one consumer about the same amount of power as a 4670K and has the same raw performance (though much less performance per clock) 24GB DDR3 1333 ECC Memory (3x8GB) (x2) - The motherboard I'm looking at has 6 slots, and supports up to 96GB of memory. However, 96GB of registered ECC memory would cost an arm and a leg, and I found 24GB kits for relatively little, so I'm going with 48 to fully populate the board. For a ZFS build, a lot of RAM will make it speedy, and an ESXi machine will help with VM hosting. ASUS Z8NR-D12 - I ended up not being able to find a Z8NA-D6, but Newegg is selling this model for $200. What's more, it's being sold from a reputable reseller with some RMA support. Unfortunately it limits the cases I can install it in. RM 850 - It's got two 8-Pin CPU connectors, which are required for the motherboard I'm using. I'm looking for one with less wattage, and the Seasonic 520W might be one (I'm looking for confirmation). NVidia GT 520 - The board doesn't come with a graphics adapter, and I have one lying around. I'll probably pick up an LSI 9211 if I end up needing more than 6 drives. The drives will probably be WD Red or Seagate NAS, my research shows little reason to choose an SE over a Red, with the exception of peak performance. However my intention is to have a lot of data hit the cache first before going to the disk, so the performance doesn't matter as much. If the system performs well enough, I might pick up an Intel I350-t4 (4x1Gb) or an Intel x540 (10Gb NIC). A network iSCSI target for game footage, video editing, backups will help a good deal if the array can push upwards of 300 MB/s. I need an SSI EEB case. A full tower ATX seems like a waste, so I'm looking at the GD07 from Silverstone. I might go rackmount, but I'm having trouble finding a rackmount case with SSI EEB compatibility. Here's a 2U one from Norco. A 1U would be ideal but is much harder to find power supplies for (and is also much louder). On the ASUS data-cke-saved-href="http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket1366/Z8NR-D12/Manual&QVL/Z8NR-D12_memory_QVL_20121203.pdf">QVL these 8GB dimms are listed: These models all have the same model: KVR1333D3D4R9S Since the Kingston part is a kit of 3 dimms, am I right in saying that the memory is compatible with the motherboard, officially? I believe it is, since the end of the Kingston part number seems to indicate the # of dimms and the total kit size, while the Asus QVL only specifies dimms. EDIT: No more ASUS Z8NA-D6. Can't find it anywhere, and the new one I'm looking at is $130 cheaper, and supports twice as much memory. The original case I was looking at from Norco isn't listed as compatible with an ATX power supply. If I end up using this system as an ESXi host, then I won't need the hotswap bays as much. The new case I'm looking at has 6 internal bays for drives, which is more than I need. Can't use the GD07 or GD08 either. I wouldn't be able to use the drive cage. Got to find a new case for it. I HAVE BOUGHT PARTS: CPUs: Intel x5650 (x2) - Bought off e-bay, pulled from a working system and tested. Should be fine as long as they aren't damaged in shipping, CPUs don't die very easily. Motherboard: ASUS Z8NR-D12 - It's the only one I could find that was relatively cheap (Newegg is trying to shed these babies), and it came with RMA support and a 3-year warranty. Can't beat that. CPU Cooler: Intel BXSTS100C - It's meant for a 130W LGA1366 CPU, so it should be able to work with the x5650's no problem while being quieter than it otherwise would be. RAM: 24GB DDR3 1333 ECC Memory - It's Kingston, so I know they did the validation well. It's not directly listed on the Asus QVL (they only list DIMMs, not kits), however I got this reply from Kingston support, which I interpret as "The part is supported, but discontinued. Here's a better option". I only bought one kit so I could see if it would work (running a single CPU). If it doesn't work, I'll send it back. Worst case, I'm out $180. I'll take the chance, since the modules they list as compatible are about $100/8GB, whereas this is $60/8GB. If this kit isn't compatible, I'll go to town with modern, supported RAM. Then I can fill this baby up with up to 96GB (not that I need that much RAM for a storage server ;)) PSU: Seasonic S12II 520W Bronze - I don't need much power for this build, and according to the Seasonic website it has one 8-pin and one 4+4 pin CPU connector, so I should be able to use it with this motherboard. It's got power for 6 SATA drives, and I can use 4 molex-SATA power adapters if I need more drives. Seasonic confirmed that it should work: OS Drive: Adata SP600 64GB - Going to host the OS while I verify the system gets put together. Once I can verify that all components are working, I'll reuse it as a ZIL or L2ARC, or maybe for something else. Fantastic deal, only cost me $5 more than the 32GB version. For now, it'll be running in single-socket mode, which I believe I can do (more linked here). Once I get the memory I need, I'll install the second CPU. -
I'm considering turning my old machine (4790k, 16GB RAM) into a NAS. I want to run TrueNas Core for typical NAS stuff (file transfer, main rig backs ups, and plex). However, I'm a also web developer who hosts a handful of web apps and DBs on an RPi 4 B (4GB memory), and I'm wondering if it would be beneficial to move these items into a virtual machine Ubuntu server on my NAS. Not surprisingly, I'm becoming more interested in learning how to determine VM capacity for any given CPU, just generally speaking. So I'm wondering how to calculate (roughly) how much virtualization any given CPU can manage? How do I make an educated guess on it? How do I monitor it? Does a 1-core virtual CPU use up one of my physical cores (because I will only have 4 of those....). Thanks for reading. Please feel free link me to any resources you think are related.

I have 2070S and it works. How far up/down the stack can I go and still have the GPU work fine? Is there any rule of thumb or should I be looking (where) for that info for individual card? I want to run a dedicated GPU in VM for Steam's remote-play.

I've never personally built a PC or server so this might not make a lot of sense. Hoping someone can help me flesh out this idea somewhat. I want to have a server that does these things: NAS Hosts a couple website Hosts an Email Server Renders 3D Modeling ( mostly Inventor ). I mainly use a laptop and carry it with me so my plan was to connect the server through Ethernet to my router then remote into it in order to use intensive software. I was looking into specific hardware and am not sure what to get either. I have a pretty decent budget so I was thinking about getting a thread ripper because why not and a 3050. That might be overkill though and I don't really want to draw unnecessary power because I plan on leaving it on almost constantly. This probably looks like a ramble. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll respond with more info to anyone that says anything. Thanks!

I am currently running my plex server and NAS off of a very old Dell Optiplex I bought off ebay and slabbed a 10tb external drive too. I have very quickly filled up the space on the system. I am wanting to build a new system as I have a lot of plans. I would like to be able to run my plex (needs to be able to transcode), NAS (ideally both linux and windows could access the same files in the same space), host a heavily modded minecraft server for 10 people, and run some basic linux vms that would be used for testing labs in my pursuit of learning how to use things/ networking simulation tools. And I am not sure what most self hosted game servers require but I would also like to be able to host non mc games like satisfactory, etc. I assume anything that could get this done would also be fine for hosting my own password manager and simple things like that as well. I am looking for both hardware and software recommendations. If all that could be attained for under 1500 USD that would be great. I was planning on starting out with at least 32 TB of storage. And if transcoding for plex and running game servers does not use much gpu I have an old R9 290 laying around that I could throw in there. I was originally thinking of using FreeNAS but some people have been pointing me towards ProxMox and just setting up VMs for everything. A cherry on the top is if there is a self hosted version of something like google drive where i can access files from my phone or any pc from elsewhere. Any help would be much appreciated and I am very open to new ideas, questions, criticisms, or unconsidered recommendations. Thanks

I get the difference between of VirtIO/QXL vs GPU passthrough. The latter is used with a Windows 11 VM with my GTX 1060, and the former with Linux distros I'm playing with, but I don't understand how VirGL compares with GPU passthrough or VirtIO/QXL. From what I understoond VirGL is the middle-ground between GPU passthrough and VirtIO/QXL? My system uses the RX 6900XT Phantom Gaming D as its primary GPU. Since macOS & NVIDIA don't support each other, will VirGL allow me to use macOS in a VM with a decent performance?

Before I even start... Yes, I realize I could buy low end/used PCs. Yes, I realize this project isn't necessary. Yes, I want to proceed anyway, so long as its at least slightly practical. Ok, so I'm working on setting up a makerspace. Its a slow process and I'm trying to piece it together as we go so that it grows to fit our community. The first things we are wanting to add are 3D printers and workstations to be able to create models and run the slicer. Today we just need Fusion 360 and Cura(and maybe a couple related programs), but down the road we will likely add some graphics software(Photoshop, Illustrator, etc), developer software(Visual Studio, Arduino IDE, Sketch, etc). So our workstations won't necessarily be doing a lot of heavy lifting, but I'd like to offer a decent experience for the people that come in to work on projects. Here's what I'm looking at: 1x Host(PC/Server) Good specs, not over the top Primary OS can be Windows or Linux. I'm more familiar with windows but am willing to work with linux if its better for the project. 10x Clients Bare bones machines remoting into the PC/Server OR Remote Peripherals connected back to the PC/Server Based on my current understanding, I would prefer that the Host be running virtual machines that can be accessed via remote connection. My reasoning is that I could always add more VMs and allow members to remote into the host using their own device(laptop, phone, tablet). This way they can use whatever software is available without having to take a seat from someone that doesn't have their own device. Also, supposedly creating VMs that use dynamic resources is much easier than it used to be. If I understand correctly, I could create 100 VMs but the hardware resources are only split between the VMs that are currently being used. Let me know what you think. I could only find one similar thread, but it was from 2015 and I'm pretty sure there have been some technological advancements since then.

Hi,I have a system with Ryzen 5 5600G and RX580 8GB(long story short,I got the graphic card for free from one of my colleagues and thought It might break down very soon because previous "owner" had issue with it and turns out it's free sync issue,bought 5600G just in case).will send out rx580 to another colleague. Now im planning to get a RTX 3050/3060(depends on final build) to do two local player station,it will be my first time messing with Hyper-V or unraid. My goal is everything (keyboard and mouse and monitor) all plug into one system.1st VM just game(if possible can do light video editing so I can learn),second VM light gaming(eSports title) and mainly video editing,that's why I was considering Intel for it's quick sync capabilities.one FHD screen that I owned,buying second screen 4k non gaming or 2k non gaming depends on budget. Digging around and what I learned is unraid doesn't able to split graphic card to two user like easy-GPU-PV does(maybe now they do,please linked the guide for me and I would be really appreciate). if using easy-GPU-PV on hyper-V the second VM has to use parsec or remote desktop to access it which require another laptop or PC. If I go with Intel 12th gen that come with IGPU,can they be shared or only passthrough,or will Ryzen APU do the trick?or you guys suggest just ditch CPU with IGPU. If using easy-GPU-PV to split the IGPU,will both VM have quick sync capability? Is it the best solution for me right now is unraid with One VM with IGPU and second VM with Graphic card?

Hey all! This is an odd question but I've found myself in a bit of a pickle. I want to run a Windows 10 or 11 VM on my my PC (which is Windows 10 Home). The issue here is Hyper-V is not enabled on Win10 Home. I've found it is possible to enable Hyper-V on Win10 Home edition but it ends up screwing up a few other application (BlueStacks etc). So my thinking is if there is a third party application when I can simply run the VM within Win10 Home, this would be fantastic but I'm a completely newbie when it comes to VM's so I was wondering, can anyone vouch for a decent "idiot-proof" VM software that isnt Hyper-V please? This is for personal use if that's something you'd need to know. Appreciate the help!!!!

Hello, I currently have a home server with a Ryzen 9 5900X, that runs Debian, with a Plex server, it has 2 network shares mapped to my NAS, and I also installed the Unifi controller for an AP to extended my Wifi. Problem is : since I installed it, I kinda tried multiples stuff on it as well, like having docker, or virtualization. So the install might not be as clean as it should be I'm about to change hardware on my current PC. Which runs a Ryzen 9 3900X, going back to intel, 13700k. So I was thinking, to redo a clean install of my home server on my old hardware (R9 3900X) and then redo it on the current server (R9 5900X). (to limit downtime) What I need is Plex, Unifi controller and I think a VM system so I can try a few things from time to time without installing them on the main OS. I thought of putting back Debian (or Ubuntu ?) installing plex, because I'd rather have full power and not a virtualised one. And then, using kvm / proxmox or going with docker ? I need a GUI in remote access for the VM, so I can manage them when I'm not on site. Apparently Unifi controller can be used in docker so I guess, one point for docker ? And also docker seems easier to setup with only one physical network card, i'd need the vm to be in the same network to be accessed easly.. Sorry for my english, I'm french, and thanks for the help
