I am having a terrible time figuring out what has happened to slow the write speeds on this newly constructed array. I was able to increase the speed of a parity check from 60Mb/s to 87Mb/s by changing the following:
Share settings > Case-sensitive names
Settings > SMB > Enhanced macOS interoperability
Settings > SMB > Samba extra configuration (added the below lines):
ea support = no
store dos attributes = no
Settings > Global Share Settings > Tunable (support Hard Links)
I have also tried enabling Turbo Write with no change.
I have also tried the "New Config" option with no change.
All Parity and Data drives are connected to a LSI 9211-8i flashed with IT Mode firmware.
Mainboard: MSI PRO Z790-P WIFI DDR4 (MS-7E06)
Proc: i7 12700k
RAM: 32GB DDR4
I pulled the attached diagnostic report about 7 minutes into a parity sync.
I have tinkered and read and read and tinkered until my brain is basically oatmeal...
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
