Struggling With Low Speeds < 15MBps Over Gigabit
Hey Guys I have been having a major PITA regarding transfer speeds ever since I purchased my 'ReadyNas Ultra 4 Plus' in May 2011. Originally, I was only getting approx 5-6 MB/second and came to...
Well, I've done a few speed tests and the results can be seen below.
1.Desktop PC > ReadyNAS
Static IP
Cat6 Cable
2. Desktop PC > Unmanaged Gigabit Switch > ReadyNAS
Static IP
Cat6 Cable
3. Desktop PC > Billion 7800N Router/Switch > Unmanaged Gigabit Switch > ReadyNAS
DHCP
Cat5e + Cat6 (Mixed)
All other equipment was disconnected from router, switch etc during tests.
Not scientific by any means and the table is a little complicated:
Just tried that NASTester program and did a couple of runs (5 x 400MB + 1 x 2000MB) and the resulting write speed was approx 26MB/Sec
I'd be interested to see what speed others achieve or what other programs, file protocols, etc that others use to achieve better transfer speeds.
