Hello,
I'm new to freenas, with this build being my first experience with the setup. While the setup process went pretty smooth I was disappointed by the read/write speeds of the share (both CIFS and FTP)
My Build:
asrock c2750d4i
32GB (4x 8GB) kingston memory
6x WD30EFRX
sandisk cruzer fit 16gb
Seasonic SSR-450RM
Node 304
I'm running all 6x disks in a RAID-Z2. All hard drives are connected to the intel SATA ports. All disks have passed the long smartctl tests. The system is connected to a RT-AC68U router running Asuswrt-Merlin and connected via cat6 cable. The router reports that the port is using full duplex. I've also tried swapping out the ethernet cable.
When I transfer a 2GB movie file from my gaming machine to the NAS, I get a transfer rate between 60-64MB/s. When transferring the same file from the NAS, I get a transfer rate of 75-80MB/s.
Is this transfer rate to be expected? In my research of this configuration I was expecting to get around 100MB/s.
