Hi,
I've installed FreeNAS 11.1 RC1 on a Dell PowerEdge T110 to replace my old WD - My Book World Edition 2.
My home network is 100Mb.

While trying to transfer my data between old NAS to new FreeNAS I discovered that it will take years :)
rsync -arvzHx --progress --delete --ignore-errors --blocking-io copied the data at about 400KB...
i changed to rsync -aHXxv --numeric-ids --delete --progress -e "ssh -T -c arcfour -o Compression=no -x" is better and copying at about 2.4 MB.
Checking the issue I realized that the WD NAS is at about 100% cpu when using rsync (probably encryption overhead).

So I thought I would mount my NFS share from my old WD NAS in the FreeNAS.
But I can't mount anything at the FreeNAS.
mount_smbfs -I WD.NAS.IP //root@WD.NAS/path/to/folder /mnt/vol1 will return "mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = No such file or directory"

WD NAS OS is very limited and i can't mount there anything.

What would be the fastest way to copy 4 TB of data between my NAS's?

Thanks.
