Unbearably slow write speed of Unraid (under 10MB/s, other pool to array, not through network)

Featured Replies

  • reconstruct write is enabled
  • nothing is accessing arryay (I think)
  • I'm using krusader.
  • transferring file size is > 3GB
  • ALL HDD's SMART have no problem

 

Edit: It's NOT about network.

 

I don't know why it's so slow. My array contains both SMR and CMR disk but the speed should be at least 50MB/s (hopefully 100MB/s) .

Any advice is welcome.

Start by running a single stream iperf test in both directions to confirm the LAN is good.

as I said in title, it's totally unrelated to LAN. This is about the problem between array and pool.

Sorry, read too fast and missed that part, start a large transfer from a pool to the array, wait like a minute, grab new diags while the transfer is still going one, post those.

Diags done't show any array activity, try this instead:

 

pv /mnt/pool_name/path_to_large_file > /mnt/disk19/file_name

 

post the output from that, and you can then delete that file:

 

rm /mnt/disk19/file_name

I cannot attach diags because download button gave me 404

 It's NOT about a network problem.


The read speed of the HDD itself is nearly 200 mb/s
https://docs.unraid.net/legacy/FAQ/check-harddrive-speed/

 

But when I actually try to copy the data on this HDD to the array, I only get about 20-30 mb/s.
I'm not even sure if I can accurately call this a ZFS pool. I have one HDD formatted with ZFS on Unraid and just use it like a cache pool.

When I copy data from, say, another PC to the Array through LAN, I get speeds of about 100mb/s with no problems.

Run the diskspeed container tests, both the disks and controllers tests.
