Interesting topic for me. I have a Infrant ReadyNAS NV (not plus) and a Pro 6. I am just getting everything wired up and playing with data transfer and backup settings.
The NV & Pro are connected via a GS108T, not much going on with the NASes or the network. They both indicate they are connected via GigE/Full Duplex. I am doing a file copy via Frontview over NFS. Post backup, interface stats on the NV show all zeros, except for:
TCP Retransmits 199
Unrecovered TCP Retransmits 95
Interface stats on Pro 6 show all zeros, except for:
TX packets 244998950
RX packets 479556876
RX dropped 10
Performance is about 101Mbits/sec for ~609GB worth of media files. I think it works out to about 12MByte/sec, which is a little worse than:
