RN104 - 18 TB HDDs
Hi,
because I couldnt find any information upfront I tested now 2 different 18 TB HDDs in the ReadyNas RN104 by myself.
- Toshiba MG09 18 TB - (MAMR) - 32.000 kbytes/s avg. write speed - 30.000 kbytes/s avg. read speed- not encrypted
- Seagate Exos X18 18 TB - 25.000 kbytes/s avg. write speed - 29.000 kbytes/s avg. read speed - not encrypted
Both are working fine, but not very fast which is imho because of the slow CPU in the NAS.

Hopefully you mean mbytes/s. Still, slower than I'd expect (even given the limited cpu/memory).
Thanks for posting your results!
I corrected it, forgot to add some 0 :-)
After a while it even drops down to 17.000 kbytes/s with load on the other discs. Not fast at all and maybe the reason for the "stale points" I get while Chia farming.
Should be much faster:
Its only 10% of the speed which it can go.

FWIW, 32.000 kbytes/s is just 32 kbyte/s in English speaking countries. Using mbytes/s would be less open to misinterpretation.

It's been a while since I tested speed on the RN100 family. But my recollection is that it can deliver about 70 mbytes/s read and 50 mbytes/s write.
