Low read speeds with ASUS XG-C100C 10gbe connected to Synology via XS716E
I am having trouble getting fast read speeds from our Synology rs3617xs+ using the ASUS XG-C100C 10gbe NIC. I am getting write speeds in the 4-500 MB/s range (which is what the internal SSD is specc...

Just in case - not mixed the two LAG port sets for the NAS connection by mishap?

Balance-XOR should be fine against the static LAG configured.
To exclude the trunking/LAG from the equation (and taking the fact some other users have reported certain issues), please give a try to- temporarily reconfigure the bond on the NAS to "Active/Standby" and retry,
- temporarily remove the bond config on the NAS, and use just one network link to a switch port (within the same VLAN of course) not configured as a LAG, and retry.

Double checked, and no mix-ups there :)

Then I re-enabled the bond on the NAS and used "active/standby" and it all still worked. Then I went back to "Balance XOR" just to see if that would break it again - but it kept working. So as far as I can tell, all the settings are the same as they were before, but now it's working... I'm none the wiser, but the problem is gone. That's both a relief and frustrating at the same time :-)
