Read Speed 3 x Slower than Write!!?
Hi I have recently purchased a ready Nas duo v2 ( 2 x 3tb Seagate barracuda drives - flexraid 0) Im seeing horrific read performance of around 1.5 MB/s where as write speed is around 4.5 MB/s ...

Ok. It appears that the netbook is slower than the NAS, otherwise the write speed at least would match.
This result suggests that you should be getting faster read speeds from the NAS anyway - since your network can carry it. Though it isn't obvious to me why that the speed is dropping that way.
Try netstat -e from your windows command line before and after a NAS read test. Are you seeing errors and discards go up?
Also, on the new laptop - is the wifi network classified as home (network and sharing center)? Do you have Readynas Remote installed?
