Hello guys, I've been a user for several years. Just recently, I figured out how to setup NFS on Windows 11. I always used SMB, and never had much issue, other than speed issues, and using the Server name, versus IP address, and ultimately using IP address as it was more stable. However, I found out about NFS, and set it up, and wanted to test them side by side.
So I started using NFS, and started download some ROMs and moving things around, and everything seemed fine. In some instances, NFS seemed faster, in other, SMB seemed faster. However, after a few days of using NFS, moving a bunch of files around, one thing I started noticing was that the NFS share, everything was there and showing up, however on the SMB share, drastically less files are showing up in the SMB share.
Why is this happening, or better yet, what is happening? If I view the files in Krusader or DoubleCommander, they are all there. But still when viewing on Windows through the SMB share, they just don't show up. Some examples:
NFS SMB
Roms - 643 files Roms - 47 files
