Hello,
I'm in the process of upgrading my setup to use 10G networking, added 2 X520-DA1's to both my TrueNAS Server and my Workstation.
Noticeable improvement in speeds over 1G; into 200-300MB/s territory quite often with transfers using SMB, however I wasn't aware until now that my ZFS POOL seems to be slower than I would anticipate, but I hadn't noticed it because it was still fast enough to saturate a 1G link.
The Primary pool is a RAIDZ3 with 10x4TB drives. ( it is a mix of various drives, 4x WD RED / 2x WD GOLD / 3x IRONWOLF / 1x BARRACUDA )
( rest of the system specs can be found in the footer. )
I realize Z3 is not going to be the most performant configuration, given the parity process for 3 drives. However I do feel like the I "should" be closer to a 400-600MB/s ballpark? I could be very be wrong about this, so that is where I'm looking for some opinions and thoughts about the setup.
The Pool is 53% full and the fragmentation is at 9%, wondering if there is anything I can configure to improve the speed. I've seen mentioned that it can helpful to recreate the backup/delete/recreate the pool from scratch.
