Differing performance Laptop (Win10Pro) + Desktop (Win7Pro)
I'm experiencing different performance levels on my Laptop (Win 10 Pro, connected via USB3 Ethernet adapter) and Desktop (Win 7 Pro, onboard NIC - Z68X-UD5-B3 motherboard : LAN = Realtek RTL8111E chip (10/100/1000 Mbit)) ReadyNAS 104, X-RAID 5, OS 6.4.2 Laptop NAS Performance tester 1.7 =================================================================== NAS performance tester 1.7 http://www.808.dk/?nastester Running warmup...

Testing via mapped network drive on both. Network adapter settings all the same except a few that aren't on the other : Desktop energy efficient ethernet - enabled green ethernet - enabled interrupt moderation - enabled receive buffers - 512 receive side scaling - enabled shutdown wake-on-lan - enabled transmit buffers - 128 Laptop vlan id - not present wake on link change - enabled wake on magic packet - enabled I don't know enough about net hardware to know what these really mean. Have recently re-installed Windows7 on the desktop - but the desktop performance has always been similar - although via drag+drop does seem to have slowed - Windows shows 30MB rather than 40MB/s it did before. Have swapped over the cables going to laptop to desktop + re-run - same result on the desktop. Could it just be hardware ? I find it hard to believe since speeds are well below Gb. Some OS difference ? One of the above settings ? TIASolved3.8KViews0likes10Comments
