Ready NAS 102, slow network speed (and saving data on reset)
RN102 (6.9.3) on Gigabit network using Lan Speed Test I'm getting 80/90 Mbps (not MB/s), similar with a known good cable connected directly.
Same speed from different machines. Antivirus not enabled
All lights are green on the various network adapters.
Disks (JBOD)
Seagate Ironwold 6Tb - st6000VN0041
Seagate NAS 4TB - st4000VN000
USB - Seagate backup hub in NTFS - 6TB
Q1. Has anyone got any ideas of what could cause this before I factory reset it. To be fair it's been like this for a while and it's only now the annoying speed is an issue.
Q2. If I do a factory reset on the NAS I will loose all data from the main disks?
But, assuming I disconnect it, the USB disk should be find to keep as is?
Many thanks for any help you can give, confused.

Sorry, another question.
Q3. What happens if I
remove these drives.
Insert a new one
Factory reset the NAS
Test the network speedAnd then reinsert the old drives
Should I be able to access the data ok?- StephenBGuru - Experienced User

I suggest looking at the ethernet stats in the log zip file. Perhaps also test with NasTester: http://www.808.dk/?code-csharp-nas-performance
Though I suspect you've tried this already, I'll mention it just in case - try rebooting the NAS.

Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated.
Just to confirm, no disk encryption.
Not sure what strict sync is but will look.
I've got the logs but am not sure where I'm looking for ethernet stats please?
NAS performance tester 1.7 is better.....

Would still like to see it getting a bit higher ( real copying is about 10Mb) but much more reassuring. I've seen it should be capable of 70-80, 50 would do me.
Having looked a bit further I can see also a ton of errors in journalctl
