Hi, I am using READYNAS428 with 8 bay. 4 bay loaded with 6TB hard disk. Past few weeks data copying from NAS is very slow. It is starting at 100MBPS and reduces to 0 in sometime and hangs. I tried changing Switch, LAN cable, refragmentation, updating antivirus, softwate update, direct connection to desktop...But nothing has worked. Could someone pls help me with any thoughts what can be the problem..I am tired of trying the options what ever I know..Pls help me..

    Have you looked for errors in the log zip file?  Start by looking for disk and/or btrfs errors.

      Yes..I have checked all the log files..there is no error or warning message. I have even cleaned the data. 5.61 TB space is free..but nothing works. Please let me know if anything else I can do.

        Rebooting the network and NAS might be a useful step if you haven't done that already.
