RN102 Write Speed Help

Question

Hi all,Have seen many post about this but still having issues.I currently have the above system, wired with cat5e, through a 10/100mb switch (netgear fs116).I just uploaded a 2gb file which took almost an hour. I then transferred a 100mb file to determine the approximate speed.. That took 3:48seconds which is roughly half a mb per second.Can anyone give any tips on how to speed this up at all? I know a gigabit switch would help but I know I should be getting a much better speed than this from my current switchThanks

How are you transferring the files?From what machine are you transferring?What services and/or addons are running on the NAS? Is antivirus on?What firmware are you running?I presume you are connecting directly to the NAS rather than through readynas remote?

Try using the NAS performance tester here: http://www.808.dk/?code-csharp-nas-performance  - that will give us a more repeatable measurement of performance, and tests both upload and download.
