Dierect-connect two readeyNas Pros using second eth port
Hi All: For purely performance issues, I am considering direct connecting the second Ethernet port on each of my two RDNP6000 using a cross-over cable. I am thinking of setting up the second port on ...
Got it. Right now my Switches are 10/100 and my primary NAS port 1 hangs off the 10/100 port, as well does port 1 on my backup on the 10.10.10.x subnet.
So what you are saying is move my port 1 cables to a gig switch, and plug the gig switch either into my 10/100 switch that hangs off my router or directly into the router, and then also plug both port #2s in the same gig switch.
That being said, would I even need port 2 or does it provide a performance enhancement to separate my every day access traffic from my backup traffic?
Thanks again for the reply.
