I have the following network components:
Qnap TS653b fitted with 4 x WD 6TB Red Nas Drives in raid 6 array. The nas has a 10GBE Qnap QX10GIT Ethernet expansion card.
NetgearXS708Ev2 10 Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switch
My Workstation is a quad core I7 with 16GB ram and 1 SSD drive for main os and a second a Seagate raptor 1tb 7200RPM hard drive. This has a buffalo LGY-PCIE-MG 10GBE ethernet adapter installed.
All components are connected via Cat 7 cable.
The network is configured as follows:
For a 5.02GB film
From PC Workstation To Nas: 110 - 130MB/s (Max Speeds) ETA:45s (Seagate)
From PC Workstation To Nas: 95 - 110MB/s (Max Speeds) ETA:30seconds (SSD Drive)
PC to Nas (Direct Connection) 76-84MB/s (Max Speeds) ETA:30 Secomds (Seagate)
QFILE transfers within filestation were actually slower.
As you can see I am getting no more than 200MB per second which seems to slow to me. I only seem to get a maximum of 180MB/s. I have updated all of my drivers and the firmware of the switch. I am also getting the green lights confirming I have a 10GBE connection.
When I am doing a transfer with the Akitio thunderbolt 3 10GBE adaptor it states I am getting an 80MB/s transfer speed for the same file connecting from the thunderbolt 3 port on my laptop to the ethernet socket on the adapter then straight into my 10 GBE switch (again I have the green light suggesting I have 10GBE connection).
Does anyone have any suggestions regarding the speed as I think I should be achieving at least 250MB/s – 300MB/s?
