Hello everyone, looking for a little help here. I have a Unraid build with 6 - 4tb drives and a ssd cache drive. I am only running 2 dockers (plex and unifi video), no vm's. I only have about 300gb of movies and I already deleted all previously saved videos in unifi.
Problem I'm having is my drives seem to be filling up, I've attached 2 images. The system is claiming I am using 8.84TB of storage when I know I'm not.
Any suggestions on what I can check or need to provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Thanks Xaero however I got rid of Windows, I do remember making sure that was off with no change, I don;t know, gave up on it. Went with Ubuntu and have zero problems now. Just getting used to it now, glad at least my steam games work

Man this is a total bummer. Reinstalled windows, updated, latest drivers yada yada...still no good. Me and google have become best friends to no end...
If going from windows to the unraid server, I get ~2.5gbit via iperf.
If going from unraid to the unraid server, I get 9.5 gbit via iperf every time.
If going from ubuntu desktop to the unraid server, I get 9.5 gbit via iperf every time.
So it would seem my hardware can do it just fine but windows is holding me back somewhere. I've tried just about every setting I can find in windows to adjust.
Anyone else has any thoughts for windows?

Ok, I think I pinned it down to my OS (Windows 10). Here's what I did, Ran a cat6 crossover cable from my PC to the Unraid server and connected it with Asus xg-c100c adapters. Did the test in windows, got about 2-3gbit in transfer.
Then, fired up my pc with a usb stick with unraid on it, opened a terminal on both machines and did the iperf test like I have been, and bam, got 9.4gbit on average. Did 5 tests and all were consistent.

root@Tower:~#So I think that rules out the hardware issue, at least I think. I want to thank all of that help so far. It's been a learning experience.
Time to collect my personal crap,
a do a format with windows and see what that does
On 12/7/2019 at 2:58 PM, Benson said:I don't think so. Two thing you may check
1. Does power management setting to power save, so CPU turbo clock limited to low.
2. NIC interrupt moderate handling setting, for my understanding, during 10G transfer, huge interrupt will occur.
No power settings restricted, not sure about #2.

The board is a ASUS ROG Strix X470-F Gaming AM4 AMD X470 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard (https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-strix-x470-f-gaming/p/N82E16813119099?Item=N82E16813119099) is where I got it from. I did try different slots with the same results.
Can a video card cause bottleneck?
-
Ok, pinned it down to being my personal PC. I move the fiber card from my PC to my sons PC and now I can push 9.5 gbit up and down. It makes no since since my hardware is better than his and much newer, but I guess it doesn't really come down to that in this case.
So, that leaves just one thing, my windows install/settings. Do you guys think it's worth doing a fresh install of windows or are there any settings I should be looking at.
Thanks guys.

push it higher. I had to go to 100 threads to hit 9.x Gbps but at the same time, on 10 I hit 7.xGbps so you do have some other issue... how long are your cat6 runs? are they just cat6 or 6a? bend in any cables?
I did that as well with the same results, sorry I should have posted that. The cat6 cable is/was approx 35ft long, straight shot from my pc to the server in a crawlspace, no major bends. I installed it personally so I know how it was ran. I did take a different approach last night and ditched the nic cards and went with the Mellanox fiber cards and the OM3 Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable with the same results leading me to believe that it has to be my hardware. I don't know if the Dell R710 mother board or pci is even able to do gigabit speeds.
8 hours ago, johnnie.black said:You should be able to hit 10GbE or close with a single iperf thread, I get around 9Gbits, and if not a single transfer will never be that quick, it's usually not faster than a single iperf thread, unless you plan on doing multiple simultaneous transfers.

I did 20 threads on this test, same results. Seems to be capped/bottlenecking at the 2gbit mark. Unless my syntax is wronge...I used iperf3 -c 192.168.11.50 -t 20 -P 20

Ok here are the iperf results. Now I did it the way I had it setup prior and the way you suggested by eliminating the switch. Both setup results were the same. First result is the 10gbit connection between my pc and the unraid box. Second result is on the 1 gigabit connection.

The 10gbit connection is the same speed I get when test moving files. Let me know your thoughts, thank you
-
Hello Everyone! I'm trying to setup my network (new unraid install) and can't seem to locate this bottleneck problem I'm having. I've attached an image of what my setup currently is. For some reason I cannot hit a 10gbit transfer speed. I know there is some overhead but I can't even come close. The most I've ever seem testing was 200-300mbit up or down. I created a temp share with all files going to the cache. I have even tried to do a direct connection from my pc to the server itself and get the same results. I have a feeling it might the server itself not being able to move that much data at once.
If anyone has any ideas I can look over to try and resolve this I would be greatly in your debt

I have attached the zip file created by unraid.
I don't have any user shares setup. I only use this for myself with plex and unifi. It only get used by me, which is why I don't understand why my space is filling up.
