I am trying to make a VM from my old pc's drives. I have imaged the drives but getting the data files (there are several 1TB files and a couple of 3-4TB files) onto the array is so slow...

I have tried across the gigabit network, slow, so tried fitting the drive with the images on in as an unassigned device and transfer from there via MC & Krusader but though they start fast at 200MB/s it goes down and now after 12+hrs it is at less than 10MB/s

I have turned on "reconstruct write" to try to speed things up.

 

Any ideas on what I can do to speed this up?

If you only get 10MB/s with turbo writes please post the diagnostics.

There's something reading from disk5, for better parity array performance you want to do one thing at a time.
