Hey all,
I recently built my UNRAID server and since all parity checks are done, I was planning on transferring my movies & tv shows from my old Synology DS1522+ to my UNRAID server. I added a 10GB NIC (XG-C100C) to my UNRAID and the Synology also have a 10 GBE add-in card, both have MTU set to 9000. But when I try to transfer files, the transfer starts at around 800-900 MB/s but then it drops down massively to somewhere around 80-90 MB/s in a couple of seconds. I am not using any cache drives for these transfers and I do know I won't be getting speeds anywhere close to 1 GB/s in unraid without a cache, but shouldn't I be getting a speed somewhere around 250 MB/s? ( Btw, I am using 5x 22TB Seagate Exos X22 drives on my Unraid, the synology uses 4x 18TB WD Red Pro drives in SHR-1 and using Krusader to transfer.)
This is the speed when I start the transfer -
This is 10 seconds later (using a different SS here, not the same transfer as above) -
I did an iperf3 test bw the two, and this was the result -
I also tried to do the transfer when connected to the 1 GB port of my synology, and that gave me a consistent 110 MB/s transfer speed. So I am wondering why a 10GB card will drop down to 80-90 MB/s?
Attached diagnostics. Thank you!
