Slow rsync between esata and /data
Because I do not have a Gigabit Switch so I thought I'd transfer data from my external HDD (NTFS) drives to /data with rsync (all done on the NAS by ssh into the NAS as root and run the command), but ...
No.

[quote="voidness"or the speed is slow because this is NTFS , top did show high CPU usage for mount.ntfs ?[/quote]. Again no. SmallNetBuilder.com got ~35 MB/s in their backup test to ntfs (though they were probably not using rsync).
I am thinking that you should probably try NFS to make the backup.
