Good Afternoon,
I am trying to write from my PC to my FreeNAS system to test the speeds after having set it up and I'm only getting just under 5MB/s writing to the server and just over 5MB/s reading from the server on a gig interface.
Here are the specs for my NAS system:
(From Newegg)
1 x ($24.99) PSU ROSEWILL|RV350 350W RTL $24.99
1 x ($44.99) MB MSI|NF725GM-P43 NF7025 AM3 R $44.99
1 x ($29.99) CASE ROSEWILL|R101-P-BK RT $29.99
1 x ($64.99) CPU AMD|ATH II X2 260 3.2G AM3 RT $64.99
1 x ($34.99) MEM 4Gx2|GSKILL F3-8500CL7D-8GBRL R $34.99
(From Ebay)
1 x Western Digital Caviar 2 TB,Internal (WD20EARS) HD (170750175504)
2 x Serial ATA Sata II 2 2.0 3Gb/s 3Gbps Data Hard Disk Drive Cable HDD RAID CD-ROM (270857405016)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My router is: Cisco Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I pressed 9 on the server to get into the console and ran the command ifconfig re0 (ifconfig -a grep media doesn't really do anything except tell me the parameters for the ifconfig command, but is what you're told to run at http://www.freenas.org/images/resou...guide_web.html#__RefHeading__10061_2120221432 so I don't know if I was doing something wrong.) Anyhow, my media is listed as Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>) so I think that's good? I don't know how to change that and would require step by step instructions as the how-tos "add to the interface settings" kinda confuses me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am running the 2TB drives mirrored with ZFS. Do I need a special ethernet cable to connect the server to the router? I just have ~10ft of your regular Walmart brand running right now.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any assistance in increasing the speed would be greatly appreciated, if you could please assist at your earliest convenience. I would be glad to give you anymore information if you need it and assist in anyway I can.
