RN104 vs NV+V2 read performance and disk storage variance
Hello, Recently, I experienced some traumatic experience with multiple drive failures. Luckily I was able to keep all my files intact on the NV+V2. In the process, I decided to get an RN104 to act ...
Thanks for the detailed explanations!
1. yes, on 6.1.8, I did update and then subsequently did a factory reset. mdgm was the one who first suggested that a few days back.
2. I agree that encryption would have negative impact on performance so I will leave that alone as unencrypted.
3. yes, i went through each of the folders under "data" and disabled continuous protection. It is slightly different from the NV+V2 where you can create different shares. here on the RN104, it seems we create share folders under the "data" volume.
4. As for backup, having gone through the biggest scare of my life few days before, I have accepted that I need a backup of my NAS. This is why I bought the RN104 to act as a backup of my older NV+V2.
5. with the readynas NV+V2, i am losing around 2GB on 822GB. On a RN104, losing 34GB seems a bit much considering that the file contents are identical. Just hope that I can find the real root cause of this difference.
