Ready NAS 102, What is the maximum throughput possible with this NAS?
I know this subject has been discussed before, but I haven't found a posting that really answers the question. I realize there are many, many factors that affect what one actually achieves but I woul...
StephenB: Thanks for the info. So, I knew I was not imagining that I had better throughput in the past.
Sandshark: I was being snarky with my NetGear comment. Of course one can't buy another ReadyNAS, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't mind if one bought a newer model of their NASs.😏
Ok, now I'm working from the ground up. I've swapped the disks to two Seagate 7200 RPM disks, unfortunately the only two 7200 Seagate disks I have are different capacities, 750 GB and 1TB. I'm going to put my 4 TB disks back in since the disks don't seem to make a difference.
I reconfigured my computer and NAS to not use jumbo frames, swapped switch ports. I'm going to figure this out.
StephenB: Do you think the IronWolf Disks at 7200 RPM vs the WD at 5400 RPM disk would make much difference?
I've done everything I know to figure this out. Now I've done the following:
- Reset to Factory Default
- Reload the OS.
- Manually reconfigured from Factory Defaults (no restore of config)
- Disabled IPv6, Disabled IPv4, (one at a time.)
- Swapped the Disks for others I have. (don't have any 7200 RPM disks.)
- Downgraded to 6.10.0 and tested again,
- Upgraded to 6.10.8 and tested again.
- Checked the logs for any errors.
Here's the processor in my unit:

Does this look like the one you have?
Do you have any other suggestions? My throughput is still 10-15 MB/s

Actually the 1 TB IronWolf drives in my NAS are 5900 rpm, so that doesn't account for it.
The CPU info is the same as yours:

Maybe try running ifconfig before and after a transfer test, and see if there are any errors, dropped packets or overruns???
