  • OMV setup (coming back after a few years)

    Hello Everyone


    I am redoing my home server and looking for some feedback/suggestions.


    My home server is just over 3 years now. The specs are


    AMD FX6100
    Asus Extreme3 970
    8GB of Kingston RAM
    4 x 1TB Seagate Sata3 drive
    Adaptec 6405E Raid Card


    For the last few years I have been using proxmox but decided to get away from that. I am thinking I will not need to virtualize any more.


    My needs are file storage, grabbing TV shows and a torrent client.


    Now when I last used OMV, I liked it very much. But my issue was that over time my OMV data would disappear. This happened 3 times. So I stopped using it.


    I am looking to come back. I was wondering if anyone else had issues above? I was also wondering if it was happening because it was on RAID or because I was using proxmox or a combination of both.


    As of now I took out the RAID card as I was testing freenas, and they dont recommend raid cards or AMD, so I dont think i will be using their product.


    So I was wondering if anyone else here uses adaptec raid cards here and have any issues?


    Thanks for help and I appreciate any feedback
