Ubuntu transfer rate limit Readynas 316

Ubuntu transfer rate limit Readynas 316

I do have an issue that I can not explain, when I tranfer a few hundreds of Gb with Ubuntu 14.04 I can not pass the 50Mo/s while on the same PC with windows 7 64 ultimate I reach 115Mo/s.

and with port aggregation between 250-300 with multi client!

It sounds like the issue is likely in the Ubuntu setup.  Are you using SMB or NFS with Ubuntu?

Can you explain how you are accessing the NAS with Ubuntu?  (what commands or steps you are using).

 

Also, is the PC dual-boot or are you running Ubuntu in a VM ("virtualbox")?

 

50 MB/s is still fairly decent - how big a problem is this lower speed?

So this is dual boot then??? (you reboot the system to change from Win7 to Ubuntu and vice versa).

 

And in ubuntu - are you using a gui or a command line interface?  If the latter, what command are you using to transfer files to the NAS?  Are you mounting the NAS share?  If so, how?

Yes dual boot but on 2 distinct HDD.

In ubuntu i use the Gui.

to connect to the NAS

1 I brower the network folder

2 I select my Nas

3 I connect with the folder I want and click connect anonymously

4 I pick a file or a folder.

 

I am not mounting the Nas share automatically I do it with the procedure above.

I am a dumbass so don'ty want to screw my config.

Thanks al lot!

Re: Ubuntu transfer rate limit Readynas 316

I believe you are using Nautilus.

 

On the NAS, what protocols are enabled for the share?

Message 8 of 13

Re: Ubuntu transfer rate limit Readynas 316

for the protocols all are enabled appart of Itune, SSH, SNMP, and antivirus.

And Nautilus is installed. But do not know if I use it I use the file browser integrated with ubuntu. Sorry for being such a dummy!

Re: Ubuntu transfer rate limit Readynas 316

So one puzzle here is that I can't tell how you are accessing the files. If you are using FTP (for instance) with ubunto then that could explain the discrepancy.  You could try turning everything off but SMB for one of the shares, and see if the speed changes.

 

But if you are using SMB, it clearly is something with Ubunto, since the same setup works fine with Win7.  Do you have a second Windows PC?  If so, you could set up another share there, and compare speeds on ubunto/win7

StephenB do you know how to unlock speed limitation on Ubuntu?

Sorry, for the delay I had to deal with a ligthning strike at home, that damaged pretty bad TV, fridge and so on, not my devices due to UPS protection!

It's an ugly smell the burnt electronics!

I'm glad the UPS did its job.  I know a couple of folks who lost all their electronics due to lightning.  FWIW, it can propogate through LAN and coax wiring, not just power.

I don't, but perhaps some other folks here will have some suggestions.
