EDIT: How embarrassing. Turns out the issue was with my router. I connected my laptop directly to the NAS and the speed increased from ~2MBytes/sec to ~35MBytes/sec.

Hi everyone!

The Problem:


Files are being transferred to my FreeNAS over CIFS at speeds of ~2MBytes/sec max.

The Hardware:

I'm using an N54L MicroServer.

Processor = AMD Turion™ II Neo N54L (2.2GHz)
Memory = 2 x 8GB DDR3 EEC RAM - KVR1333D3E9SK2
Storage = 2 x 3TB WD Red NAS Desktop Hard Disk Drive

The Goal:

My goal is to create a mirror between these two drives.

Closing Notes:

I'm currently reading through cyberjock's informative PowerPoint, the FreeNAS documentation, and various threads discussing dd / iperf. Nevertheless, I'm still a new when it comes to this kind of stuff so any advice would be appreciated!

Also, if I'm missing any important information that would aid in trouble-shooting, please let me know.

Thanks.

Post a debug file "system" -> "advanced" -> "save debug". Upload the tgz file.
