Feedback regarding 104 device
I've just purchased a 104, to be honest the reason being that at least in the UK the street price is now so low that it undercuts all other 4 drive devices. On install it correctly upgraded to the ...
Hi Rit,
Thanks for your feedback.
- The lack of device performance stats is a pain, while you may not be able to log the same stats as on the 3xx and 5xx products, some information is required.
=> Copy a big file, Write is about 40MB/s, Read is about 90MB/s, for 3xx and 5xx, both write and Read are more than 100MB/s,
I will provide the idea to manager.
- I should be able to turn IP6 off, at the moment it pulls in an IP6 address, even if I do not want it to.
=>Is it IPv6 link-local address?
- There seems to be no clean way to set the device to use jumbo frames, the only option seems to be to set the MTU > 1500 which is not a clean option if WAN based devices are also on the network.
=> We let user set MTU manually, if you want to use Jumbo frame, you may set MTU 9000.
- On the disk view under System/Performance/Status/Disk the window displayed to show the stats of a disk drive is too small so you can not see all the SMART information
=> When SMART page is display, you can move your mouse to SMART message, then you may move information up and down using mouse wheel.
- The apps store is a nightmare. The Netgear selection does not detail the version of the apps - so just what version of MySql, PHP, Wordpress do you offer/support?
=> I will create a request for the feature.
- There seems to be no support for idle drive spindown.
=> We plan to add spin down,
We didn't add this function before because of btrfs system problem.
70 hours is too long for Raid building on RN104 with 3x2TB disks, are you using RN104 now?
