did anybody try to use Unraid for the fan settings? Out of the box the sensors are not working, so I guess there needs some BIOS settings to be changed. Does anybody know which settings?

With the N305 I have 18,7W with 4 disks spun down and 2nvme as cache raid. but I can't reach c8 somehow.(altough I have the above mentioned settings) it is always stuck at c6. i have the be quiet system power s9 400W PSU. maybe the rm550x or a picoPSU may help to reduce it a little further. but I fear we won't see sub 10W..
for reference, with nothing connected I got 14.5W.
Curious what @MiauLightouch has as final power consumption
With only 2 NVME and no disks connected, I have 50% C8 and 11W.

Interesting. Do you use a PicoPSU?

I wonder what is keeping my system in c6. I did all the things you said in your post except that i got an error at boot that i think it was the 0000:00:19*
Code:
# Serial bus controller: Intel Corporation Device 54c5
echo auto | tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:19.0/power/control
# Serial bus controller: Intel Corporation Device 54c6
echo auto | tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:19.1/power/control
because i don't have that folder

but I wasn't sure were to find which one is the equivalent to yours.
Is there a way to find out what is keeping my system from going into c8?

Shame on me I got in this thread so late, lots of infos here!

I'm feeling I'd upgrade my 5105 board. Do you think it's worth?

no one can tell you that, depends on what work your server does and if you need any of the new things on this board.

Well, you'r right... I didn't mention my use.
I'm quite a basic user of UnRAID, quite some dockers, low use of decoding in Plex. I used to have some VMs, but I shutted them down as I wasn't using that feature so much. The Topton 5150 based model I have is enough for basic NAS usage, but it gets easily stuck under CPU demand... So, I'm here! :)

Well, you can compare the passmarks here - higher is better. Button line is that they are faster but don't expect miracles for highly intensive cpu tasks Intel i3-N305 vs N200 vs N100 vs Celeron N5105 [cpubenchmark.net] by PassMark Software

Installed n305 board in Jonsbo n2 case with Jonsbo HX6200d cpu cooler.
Cooler fan is just below upper vent holes. Which way is it better to orient the fan - blow up out of the case or down towards heat sink ?

On my BKHD-1264-NAS, I recently added an ASM1166 SATA adapter in the first M.2 slot. To do this, I had to move the NVMe SSD previously in that slot to a PCIe x1 adapter.

Has anyone found a useful purpose for the second slot?
From your post i asume you cant use that nvme drive from slot 1 in slot 2?

Well I tried to do that but the drive was not recognized. From the specs I understand it's NGFF slot. So probably I need an NGFF disk and not a NVMe disk?

NVME is not a ssd form factor, nvme is protocol like ahci one is.
I'm aware of the formfactor. To be more specific, I meant an NVMe PCIe disk. It looks the CPU does not support this on the second m2 slot.

And I just found an SATA NGFF (Kingston RBU-SNS8152S3) disk from an old laptop, that one is recognized :)

I got the Problem that the Jonsbo fan isn't stopping. my own HDD fans are spinning down and up properly. The jonsbo fan only stops under 70 in the Fan auto control plugin. but then its not starting again (obviously too low) anybody got this fixed? my cpu temp is most of the time below 30 and the threshold is set to 35.
