Specs:
CPU: Intel core 2 duo E6700 2.66Ghz
RAM: 2gb ddr2
HDD: 4X2TB in raid-z
Using onboard sata.
I'm getting about 50mb/s write and 60mb/s read. I'm pretty unhappy with that as I did some testing before buying the hdd's with the same setup, same setting except the hdds I used were 2X250gb and 1X320 all in raid-z. One of the 250gb was an ide drive. With the test setup I was getting 90-100 mb/s throughput. Freenas is servicing windows 7 machines. I've enable large RW and AIO, I'm even copying the same 42gb file for both setups.
Anyone know why there is a massive difference in performance? Any advice on setting I can change? I find it hard to believe newer 64mb cache drivers are slower than a IDE 16mb cache drive.
Any help would be appreciated.
