After moving my jails to a pair of mirrored SSD's on my FreeNAS 1 server i encountered problems with some plugins.
At first i thought it would be the controller of my C2750D4I motherboard cause i placed both SSD's on the 4 ports Marvell controller which is known for its problems but this seemed not the case. After more investigation i have to say i did not encountered controller problems yet with the C2750D4I.
To move the jails i used this guide:

The problems i encountered after the move where:
Plex Mediaserver crashing after 30 min or so and the storage window in the FreeNAS UI would not load at all (blank window). Only a restart of the FreeNAS server would fix it.
Sabnzbd slowing down all transfers to different CIFS shares.
I did a fresh install of FreeNAS 9.10 and placed back my config file and changed the SSD's to another controller, this did not help the problems remained.
I still wanted to move Plex to my other server so for now the problem of a crashing Plex and FreeNAS i could avoid.
Today i wanted to start fresh with the jails on my first server but to do that i first wanted to install the plugins and jails i used on it on the other server which where not possible due to another new problem:
https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/unable-to-find-template-cant-install-new-plugins.46205/
So starting fresh is not an option now.
The second problem (the one i hope to fix now), slow transfer speeds on CIFS shares when Sabnzbd is in use, normally i would have write speeds of 95/100 mb sec to FreeNAS (writing to another volume, 6xWD Red RaidZ2 instead of the SSD's) but when i download with Sabnzbd (and not even repair or verify, just download) with only 10mb /sec (throttled) my write speeds to the CIFS share drop down to 6/20 mb/sec.
the moment i pause the downloads the write speeds go up again and stay up.
I never seen this before i switched to the SSD's and did the fresh install of FreeNAS.
Any help in solving this strange problem?
If i can fix the other problem i can test more by installing plugins and other jails again but i am very limited atm.
