RN202 extremely slow on small files
Coming from Synology I was hoping for a better OS (I really don't need all the functions Synology offers) and a faster NAS I purchased a ReadyNAS RN202. It did very well in tests, but now I'm trying ...

How are the files dispersed? Are all 200,000 files in a single folder?

There are multiple folders and folders within folders.
It's still copying, over 50 hours and counting.

How many files are in a typical folder? How many files in the largest folder?

I really don't understand what that has to do with anything, if I copy small files it seems to do only one at a time and one file takes a few seconds. If you multiply a few seconds bij 300.000 it takes way longer than it should.
My current e-mail backup contains:
20.2GB
306.940 files
31 folders
Folder address 2 files few kb
Folder attachments 14.926 files 4.7gb
Folder cache 288.412 files 4.19gb
Folder mail 21 subfolders, 3570 files, 12gb
And some mores small files/folders
It just should not be so slow, the old Synology (also a 2 bay NAS) wasn't so slow on small files (but it wasn't that fast on big files either), same pc. same backup, same drives, same cables.
