NV+ Transfer rates
GDay All, I have just installed a RND4000 V3 NV+ onto my network and I'm a little disappointed with the transfer speeds. At best I get an average of 7.2mb/s up and down which is dismal compared to ...
BikeHelmet, I suggest you read all of this thread. All of the suggestions, except for updating the Realtek drivers have been performed. I am using the Realtek Drivers as supplied by Asus and I am currently in the process of updating the NAS to 4.1.9. You may be aware that the Realtek receive and transmit buffers cannot be increased above the current limits of 512 and 128 respectively. Also, my Realtek Drivers at present, do not cover IPv6 for some reason. I have been unable to find a driver update for this particular Realtek chipset though. The chipset is RTL8211/8212 and is not listed on The Realtek Taiwan website. It is builtin to the Asus X58 Sabertooth motherboard.
The NAS was updated at first switch on and was 4.1.8 at the time of the factory reset. I'm hoping 4.1.9 will be the magic bullet but I won't hold my breath ... lol
I do have another question to ask you and Stephen though, does your NAS fan increase in speed at random intervals?
My fan seems to have a mind of it's own and will increase in speed and volume at what appears to be random intervals. I could understand it if the drives were increasing in temperature, but they don't appear to be. I don't have an actual thermometer to read the drive or even the enclosure temp with and the Smart logs don't indicate any changes in temp of the drives, so there is nothing to show why the fan speed increases. There is no mention of the increased fan speed anywhere within the logs either.
