ReadyNas 102 Slow Transfer Rate - Windows 7

Hi,
I am completely new to network drives and wondering if someone can give me some advise as my transfer rate is incredibly slow.

Here is my setup
Readynas 102 (Firmware 6.2.2) INC 1 x WD RED WD30EFRX 3TB
Windows 7 PC (jumbo frames enabled 2k)
Netgear FS105 Gigabit Switch
All cat 6 cabling

When transferring, via file drop/copy within windows, an 800mb file its taking up to 8 minutes.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

    I set the static ip as per your instruction.

    That is an odd address.

    Anyway, It is strange that the router didn't solve it. What happens if you connect the PC and the NAS to the 3700, but leave the 3700 disconnected from the main router?
  • I left it disconnected from the router and tested and the same issue is happening with the connection dropping
