CrashPlan performance
Just got up and running with CrashPlan on my PRO 6, and was wondering what upload speeds people are seeing. So far I am generally seeing between 5 and 12 mbps (much slower than my internet uplink)....

Or are you backing up from the NAS to the Crashplan Central?
PC lan to NAS. I was planning on allso using the cloud, but I was looking for something that could give me a fast recover on LAN if any of my computer-hardware went down. This as well as having relatives using my NAS so they quickly could recover their data (In stead of having to download hundreds of gigabytes from the cloud). But with the speed I'm having atm., I think I will end up using something like BT Sync or just normal manual FastCopy.
Anywho, back to topic, then yes, I'm using PC lan to NAS, and I have set up the preferences so that it should be as fast at possible. Still, the max speed I have seen is 60Mbps, where I had hoped on seeing something like maybe 4-500Mbps.
