Hey guys, I'm copying a share from one volume to a new volume through SSH using MC (Midnight Commander) and I'm getting an avg of 6.33MB/s. Going to take 35mins or so to copy 14GB. I know this unit is a bit slow for ram/cpu but this seems like a 10th of what it should be able to do. Thoughts before I move onto the other 5 TERABYTES?

Of course it should be faster. What firmware are you running? Is the new volume still syncing? Were you seeing any performance issues on the old volume before? Have you checked Disk Health? Is AntiVirus running?

- Firmware is 6.9.5 - Syncing? Well the new volume is a single empty disk. I suppose the NAS might be formatting it in the background?! Not sure. - It always seemed slow to transfer stuff over the network but I was never copying a file from one volume to another to benchmark it. - I have not checked Disk Health, I'm certainly hoping this brand new drive is A-OK. - No anti-virus.

Hi WiredRacing A new disk might be fine and dandy until the courier starts bouncing it around in the back of the truck :) This could be a disk issue. Can you download the logs and find the log file: disk_info.log Post the content of that log-file here (masking any serial numbers of your disk). Thanks

Were you seeing any performance issues on the old volume before?

Have you checked Disk Health?

Is AntiVirus running?

I keep pasting this info in the thread and the post keeps disappearing.

Anyhow there's no errors for that (any) drive in the log file. If someone can help me understand why I can't paste the contents in the message, then perhaps I can do that.

  You triggered the automatic spam filter (that happens sometimes). I've released one of the posts.
