Trouble shooting slow network speeds on NV
I’ve had slow transfer speeds on my internal network for some time. I’ve upgraded some hardware and run a variety of tests and I still don’t think I’m getting the speeds I should. I’m out of ideas and...
Perhaps the errors in the diagnostics.log were from when you used the non-stock memory. A way to check would be to:
1. Power down
2. Remove all disks (label order)
3. Put a spare disk in (must not be from your array)
4. Do a factory default (http://www.readynas.com/kb/faq/boot/how_do_i_use_the_boot_menu) if necessary to wipe the disk.
5. Run with this disk for a few days or so, copying data to/from the disk.
6. Check diagnostics.log to see if it detects a problem caused by bad memory.
4k block size vs 16k block size; and 512-byte sector vs 4k sector partition alignment are two completely different issues.
Doing a factory default on RAIDiator 4.1.6 meant you now have a volume with a 16k block size.
Your drives are 512-byte sector drives I believe. Had you chosen 4k sector disks a factory default on RAIDiator 4.1.7 or later would've been necessary or else you would've got poor write performance.
