Hello all.
I just setup my NAS storage server yesterday. I thought I have done my research. But I guess it wasn't enough. Here is the setup.
NAS:
CPU: Intel core i3-2105 @ 3.1GHz
MB: Gigabyte Intel Z68 Micro ATX LGA 1155 Motherboard (GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3)
RAM: Corsair Dual Channel 16GB DDR3 1600 MHz
HDD model: Seagate Barracuda 7200 3 TB 7200RPM SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache - ST3000DM001
HDD config: 4x3TB zfs RAIDz1 on MB SATA
8x3TB zfs RAIDz2 on IBM miniSAS controller
NIC: MB onboard RTL8111E
Gigabit Switch: TRENDnet TEG-S80G (http://www.trendnet.com/products/proddetail.asp?prod=515_TEG-S80G)
CAT6 Cables
Client Computer: 2009 MBpro core2 dual 2.4Ghz, 4GB of RAM. Storage: 4TB (2x2TB RAID0) esata external drive
Connection: 1000baseT full-duplex, flow-control
Goal: stable transfer speed of 85MB/s or higher (write) in AFP sharing
So, there is no 8.2 official documentation yet, but I manage to set everything up with other documentations and lots of reading.
Problems : I transferred 3.4TB of data (mostly video) to NAS, took 20 hours. Way too long. The rate of transfer has been very jumpy. From peek of 111MB/s to 300 bytes, and keeps jumping in between. (to zfs raidz1 volume). I heard that if I change the mtu to 9000, it should help with speed. Tried CLI way of doing that using ifconfig commands, didn't work. The option box under interface in GUI didn't work either. So I have no idea on how to change it under 8.2 beta2.
Also do you guys think the rate is affected by the mbpro NIC card
I also got a bunch of message like the following on the NAS during transfer:
Read: connection reset by peer
Error reading message header: connection reset by peer
Thank you for your inputs!
