Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB 5400 RPM working good so far

Ok. Done some quick tests. Enabled "Enable Fast CIFS writes" and that seemed to be the kiddy that made the difference.
Jumbo frames enabled or disabled I'm not sure made a difference. I'm sure first test with it enabled was really fast. Then second and third test which was disabled and then re-enabled didn't show much difference if any at all. Did re-boot every time.
At the moment It's "Enable Fast CIFS writes" with "Jumbo Frames" enabled. Just checked and got about 35 GB an hour backed up. 35GB an hour works out to approx a day and half. Better than 11 and half days, that was showing last night.
So faster than last night with "Enable Fast CIFS writes". Located in the Performance tab in frontview for anyone looking.
Think I had some read/write issues going of with some shares last night going by the logs. Went and reset owner ship today on all shares to admin and nogroup. Hopefully that'll solve the problem.
Could someone please clarify for me please about the "Jumbo Frames".
I'm not using a gigabit switch. External Caddy attached to back of Duo. Formatted to EXT3.
Would enabling "Jumbo Frames" help in any way? Technically?
The fact that the data is not going through the LAN, but straight from the Duo to the external caddy, would Jumbo Frames work?
