Hi guys im new with unraid. After few days test with the trial version, I have lots of confuse.
First is the "none raid style", I have 7 x 4 TB drives and I tried to make a 1 parity + 6 drive Array without Cache Drive.
I have a 1Gbps internal port (through Router) and a 10Gbps Pcie NIC (directly to PC) in my nas.
1. Transfer between the 1Gbps internal, the transfer speed is kept on 112MB/s (PC to NAS), 100MB/s (NAS to PC).
>>I think the speed on 1Gbps link are kind of normal since it closed to the link speed bottleneck.
2.Transfer between the 10Gbps pcie NIC, the transfer speed are like below ( both the same as single and multi-files),
PC to NAS : 800MB/s for few second then drop to 145MB/s
NAS to PC : Around 160MB/s.
Q1 : Are these speed normal?
Q2 : Is that means I can't get close to the 10Gbps speed unless I change all drives in my Array to Nvme or SSD?
Q4 : If I run a vm (with raid compatible system) in unraid, can I have a raid like transfer speed between my PC to VM (unless raid 5/6 speed)?
I don't use cache drive atm,. because I don't have large enough SSD to save my file before mover.
Can anybody please help me on this?
