Hi all, trying to install unraid to give it a trial but I can't get it to see my USB drive.

It's a 64gb SanDisk Ultra Fit USB 3.1 drive

I used rufus to fully format it to fat32 and it didn't show up so I started digging.

Found the legacy method, tried that, ran the make_bootable script and it said it was successful, still doesn't show up.

Is this drive just not supported, or is there something I'm doing wrong?

*edit to give the full name of the drive*

So a few years ago I pulled a Liquid Devil 6950rx out of a bin at one of those stores where they resell Amazon returns and whatnot. Got it for $14.

Was so excited that I started slowly buying components to build a pc around it, which meant water cooling equipment.

Then depression hit and I lost interest in everything and all the stuff just gathered dust and I just kept using my PC built around a GTX975 and it worked fine since I wasn't even gaming that much anymore.

Flash forward to last Thursday when Subnautica 2 went into EA. I actually got excited for a modern game, bought it and installed it... it runs but at like 15-25 FPS. Not good.

So I dug out all the parts I had bought and took it to a local pc store, was just going to pay to have them build it for me as I don't have the workspace at home to do so.

Well, as you probably guessed from the start, the GPU is bad. Any time the card goes under any stress it resets the computer and creates a GPU driver timeout error.

Which brings me to my help request: what would be the best direction to go in in getting a water cooled GPU to work with all the equipment I have for this build?

There's a few used liquid devil 7900s out there for around $1000, or is there a more modern card/block combo that would get me where I want to be for cheaper and easier? Or even a used market?

If I left out anything pertinent please let me know and I'll provide it if I can.
