As I suspected you last did a factory reset on RAIDiator 4.1.6 or earlier. You do not have 4k sector alignment. A lack of 4k sector alignment when you have 4k sector disks (which you do) will lead to performance issues.
Before further troubleshooting can take place, I would recommend you backup your data and do a factory default (note this wipes all data, settings, everything) via System > Update > Factory Default in Frontview.
Excellent, that sounds very promising. Do you have any good tricks/suggestions for how to backup 1.94TB of data? I know that may sound like a silly question and I know it's not your problem, but I guess I'm just wondering if I need to find a friend that has an extra 2TB drive? or maybe there's simpler way?
