This thing? Is there a driver I need to install afterwards?

I don't have a "Killer Performance Suite". Attempting to uninstall that driver package gets me an error saying a specific inf file wasn't found.

There are still diagnostic tools available that can delve deeper into what is ormay be astray with the desktop.

Premise being that the desktop is somehow configured differently than the laptop especially with respect to where the network configuration settings should be identical.

One way to look for differences is by using Powershell and more specifically "Get" cmdlets that get information about how the host computer and the network adapter are configured. Many details.

As a start try the cmdlets:

Get-NetAdapter -Name *


and

Get-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty -Name "*"


Reference:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/p...teradvancedproperty?view=windowsserver2022-ps

The first cmdlet will identify network adapters.

The second cmdlet will reveal, for example, the status of Jumbo Frame. Very relevant per @kanewolf.

However, there are many more details that can be looked at and compared to the laptop's configuration and/or other network computers.

Using

Get-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty -Name "*" -AllProperties
results in very long list of related registry values.

Remember - just look and more specifically look for differences between the desktop and laptop.
There will be some differences because of being a desktop or laptop and different network adapters. Overall though I would expect the basic network configuration settings to be identical.

It may seem complicated at first but it really is not so especially if you stay with the one-line examples in the links and use only "Get" cmdlets.

Note that you can copy cmdlets from the linked tutorials and paste them in at the Powershell PS> prompt. Helps avoid typos.....

Plus you can find any number of similar Powershell Network related tutorials to read:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/p...adapterhardwareinfo?view=windowsserver2022-ps

Do not change anything. Simply work with a few of the Get cmdlets and post any noted differences.

Some differences may be explainable or expected. Other differences may be a clue as to why the desktop's performance falters with respect to the two NAS devices.

Looking for differnces and making comparisons will take some time and effort..... no need to rush.
