May 11, 20233 yr When I transfer files to unraid array it will only transfer this data to a single drive. Is there a way to improve speeds by making unraid do simultaneous transfers of the files to each drive in the array at the same time instead of just a single one? I'd imagine this would make unraid have ZFS like speeds whenever doing random i/o write operations
May 11, 20233 yr What you in fact can do is enable turbo write (reconstruct write). You can read more about it here

This is indeed possible but I found out if I do it by share each disks then doin each transfer folder to each of the individual disk, it does work but is not really usable. I am using UNRAID shares as a whole but was wondering if a feature like this is hidden somewhere or as a plugin

I'd imagine this would make unraid have ZFS like speeds whenever doing random i/o write operations This is actually counter-productive if the main array has a parity drive as the contention for the updates to the parity drive makes the transfers slow down so much that it is quicker to do them one after another.
