December 7, 20232 yr I plan to upgrade most of my stuff to 2.5 gigabit in the next few months. My server cpu is currently a dual-core i3-6100. That's so low spec, I'm wondering if it will (or currently is) slowing down any kind user or backend NAS functions like parity calculations. Or that it might slow down my network transfer speeds on certain kinds of SSD storage pools. Thoughts on this? I'm currently upgrading another gaming desktop. So I have to choose between selling the old hardware or using it to upgrade my server. Edited December 7, 20232 yr by Marc_G2
