I've recently decided to give the TrueNAS Core a try as it is the top rated NAS Software in the land! I was excited to install it and set it up, I've set up the datasets and CIFS shares, however now that I am starting to put my data on it, I am supremely disappointed with the write speed and can't seem to find a way to speed it up. I've enabled the autotune to see if it would help, but no noticeable difference has come from it.
Build Specs
CPU: Intel i5-4670K
RAM: 24GB DDR3
OS Disk: 2x 256GB SSDs in Mirror
Storage Array: 4 WD RED 8TB HDD in RAIDz1
I am writing about 15TB of Data to the PlexMedia share and it seems the data is being cached on the RAM first as it is slowly written to the storage pool. Is there any way to bypass the RAM Caching? It writes in bursts to the RAM as seen in the screenshot of the network monitor. all network interfaces are 1Gigabit, nothing fancy but I would hope for a steady data rate at least.
