Average transfer speed (read and write) plummeted after replacing hard drives
Hello everyone
TL;DR: I just replaced my 3TB hard drive with some brand new 8TB hard drive, and the average speed plummeted, from 70MB (switch 1)/100MB (switch 2) to a steady (but slow) 40MB on bot...
Hi EstivalG , I can confirm the 40MB/s transfer speed. I get that from my retired RN104 with two volumes (RAID0 and RAID1), which I'm using as a guineapig for trying things out.
If you like you can try some hints in the below link and see, whether you can improve performance of your RN102 in general (In essence RN102 and RN104 do only differ in the number of bays they hold).
Should you find a way to boost the transfer speed back to 70MB/s using the more recent firmware releases, I will be more than happy to adopt your approach as soon as it will be available.
Kind regards
Good work on that article Retired_Member :)
