Hello, having a small issue with my new freenas box, which is replacing my old SMB server.
My Hardware
Asus C60M1-I AMD C-60/ AMD FCH A50M/ DDR3/ SATA3/ A&V&GbE/ Mini ITX Motherboard & CPU Combo
2 x 8Gig GB RAM - Patriot Gamer 2 Extreme Performance 1333MHz Enhanced Latency Kit 16 Dual Channel Kit DDR3 (PC3 10666) 240-Pin SDRAM - PGD316G1333ELK
4 x 2 TB Red NAS Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, SATA III, 64 MB Cache - WD20EFRX
Hostname freenas.local
Build FreeNAS-8.3.1-RELEASE-p2-x64 (r12686+b770da6_dirty)
Platform AMD C-60 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics
Memory 15966MB
System Time Sun Apr 28 19:53:32 EDT 2013
Uptime 7:53PM up 2 days, 3:23, 1 user
Load Average 0.13, 0.14, 0.15
Connected through 192.168.1.125

CIFS transfer speed is slow, not sure how to improve it.
Ran these tests on my freenas box.

SMB Tests
Test file is a 1.85G m4v file
SMB read(to freenas, varies ~45MB/s, almost always starts out around 90MB/s)
SMB write(to freenas, starts out about 12MB/s end at about 20MB/s)
On my ubuntu client, both speeds were slightly lower on average
Ran the same tests on my old SMB server...
Old server specs:
iperf ~ 200 Mb/s
