Hello,
I have searched the internet high and low and have tried absolutely everything I can think of, but still no luck. I am hoping someone can help me figure this out.
I am trying to:
A) improve the network speed of my LAN
B) understand why the speeds TO the NAS are different than FROM the NAS. (PC to NAS = 35 MB/s, NAS to PC = 50 MB/s)
I am hearing that people are achieving 70-80 MB/s - why am I not getting this??? What am I doing wrong???
Starting with the simplest connection, I have eliminated all the complexities with the most basic setup, and I still observe the same symptoms (slow data transfer speeds):
Dell E6430s laptop
gigabit ethernet interface
7200RPM hard drive
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
All antivirus/malware protection disabled
connected via a cat-6 ethernet cable to:
a WD My Cloud NAS that supports SATA and USB3.0.
with a Western Digital hard drive (WD-WCAZAK830507) - supports up to SATA III
Raid mode = JBOD
(Jumbo frames are turned on from both sides - all the way to 9K)
Once I can achieve faster speeds here, I will introduce complexity and start introducing network equipment (switches..etc), but I need to start from the base and work up.
Can anyone suggest things to improve my transfer rates?
Thanks
Bob
