Not sure if this has been approached on here. Speed is an issue. I just switched to unraid and was running my own simple backup script using rsync. I like the way duplicati does "snapshot" backups so to speak. But SPEEEEED is an issue. Please help me if I am doing something wrong. I have 2.5 TB of photos I am backing up to my external seagate 5TB drive. It is an smr drive so I can see a little slow down.
I am using AES256 encryption.
Porcessor is a i-7 4790k 4ghz 4 core.
It has taken over a week or two just to get ONE backup done of that data.
I am thinking of going back to just making a luks container on the hd and rsync'ing to that. What am I doing wrong for it to take over two weeks to backup 2.5 tb?. Only backing up at something like 3.5 k/s
