I borrow my friend’s laptop. It’s iperf result is close and do have the write speed of 110MB/s. I tried update the nic driver but didn’t make any difference. it is isolated to my pc end but I’m not too sure what else can be done.

i have this result.

i am learning how to run iperf, will report back result. thanks for helping

try to do brenchmarking on the drive?

i was using a 8gib movie to do the testing, i did wonder replacing the CPU would help, but didnt see CPU usage ramp up that much when i was copying the file.

if cache is not enable, i getting a jummpy speed from 30-60MB up and down,

Hi all, as mentioned above I am struggling with low write performance to my cache SSD over Lan. everything else is running perfectly, my download speed from the share is approx 100MB/s (I have no idea on how to get the speed test apart from copying to and downloading from, any suggestion on alternate method is appreciated) xeon e3-1220 v3 16gb DDR3 Ram 1x 3t HDD 1x 120 SSD for cache, dianostic file is attaced, Any idea? samsbay-diagnostics-20200826-1116.zip

Hi all, I recently move from Synology to unRaid, the most obvious different i experience is that when play a movie that storage on Synology i could unlimit go forward by 5 sec, there is no lagging. however, when i do that to the same movie hosted on unRaid, it going about 5times then started lagging. and i also saw that when my unRaid is siting idle, CPU (e3-1220 v3) usage is still 35%, i only have a plex docker going at the time. im totally new to unRaid, where should i get started on trouble shooting? what info is valuable when asking help to issue similiar to this? thanks advance, Sam

yeah i took you advise to have one for movie and one for TV show, it makes sense. my CPU still ramp up quite a bit when i use watch the movie on my phone. i cant see "HW" tag in audio, does it mean CPU is still doing work for it?

thank you so much for your help. not idea why "Movies" and "TV Shows" actually make a difference. with your help i use other videos, it actually picked up all my shows and stuff. now will set up the hardware transcoding. thanks again for your help.

yeah i think something is wrong, what confused me is that i only have one share with all movies and TV shows, i cant understand why some show up and some dont

once it finish, it says "There are no item in this folder"

Hi all, I installed the plex from Apps tab, and configure to pick up my movies and tv shows, on a plex client i can see all my folders, however i could only see show files, majority of the tv show (*.mkv files) are missing, i dont recall seeing this when i use a plex server with my old synology NAS. does plex on docker has some limitation on what media format it suppors? (e.g. audio or video coding type etc.) has anyone experienced similar thing before? thanks advance.

Hi all, my old NAS just finish its services, and I think this is a good time for me to try unraid, my need: storage, plex server 1x VM the bit im not too sure is that where i should put the plex server in the VM or on of the add-in that unraid has. I only have 1 graphic card in the set up, not too sure what would be the best way to put it to utilise the gpu to max. thanks, Sam
