Thank you for the help/info.
I think I’m willing to spend a little $ to get better results. The Duo is about 1.5 - 2 years old.
I currently have the Linksys E3000 router (No jumbo support)
What type of performance gain should be expected if I spend the money for a new router with jumbo support?
Can I simply add a switch with jumbo support to my E3000 or must the router and the switch both support jumbo? In other words: if both the PC and the NAS are cat6 connected to the switch behind the router, is their communication direct or does the router still play a part in the LAN file transfer?
I don’t think jumbo frames offer enough increase in performance for me to be happy. If I decide to purchase a new/higher end NAS what is recommended? I have seen reports here of 100MB/s. Is there a NAS available that I could expect those results from considering my other components?
Thanks again-
