ReadyNAS102 USB3 ports broken?

i'm trying to connect an external usb 3.0 hdd to my new readynas and there appears to be a problem with the rear usb 3.0 ports

 

after doing some testing it seems that network write speeds are around ~70MB/s, writes from the external drive on the front USB2.0 port are ~29MB/s, and writes from the external drive on the rear USB 3.0 ports are <1MB/s (sometimes 0.1MB/s even).

 

Is this a known issue?

  • more testing reveals this issue only affects backups

     

    copying a folder from the usb drive share and pasting it to an internal NAS share using the nas admin page gives 45MB/s write speeds from the USB3 port

        Just finished another test transferring 3GB.

         

        Using copy/paste it took 65 seconds (47MB/s)

        Using a backup job took 5 hours (0.17MB/s)
