Hi guys

 

I'm new at unraid, just started my Media Server, and I have a doubt (noob probably)

So, disk configuration is
Parity - 14 TB Western Digital - WDC_WD140EDFZ

Disk 1 - 14 TB Western Digital - WDC_WD140EDFZ

Disk 2 - 6TB Seagate - ST6000DM003

 

During the array build, the WD drive reached 190MB, now when I'm moving files from any device, speed is always much lower. Is it normal for the drives (parity and copy targer) to be reading and writing simultaneously, hence droping maximum speed?

 

Attached are 2 prints, one of the share config, the other from disks speed during copy.

 

Thanks

Unraid parity is realtime. Any write to the parity array updates parity at the same time. See here for an explanation of how that works and the 2 different ways to configure that:

 

 

That's it! Thank you very much!
