I have upgraded disk1 from 2tb to 3tb and I have 1tb free space. I want to transfer most of the contents of disk14 which has 1.4tb worth of data on it to fill up disk1.

 

How do I do this?

You could telnet to the server and use mc

OK. But will MC stop transferring files once disk1 is full?

I am using putty. I typed in MC and a MC gui pops with files like @smaba, @powerdown, mdcmd. But I don't know what this means.

User shares are under /mnt/user, disk shares are under /mnt/disk??

i know that but what do i do/type to get mc to show them in the left right fields?

I get the following screen and I don't know what to do:

What part of the tutorial are you having trouble with?

Sorry my fault. I don't use linux etc at all. I am only used to Windows. I am now transferring one file from disk14 to disk1 and the write speeds seems very slow. Its writing at about 18.70 MB/s.

Attach a syslog. zip if needed.

I might go back to RC5 and see if the write speeds are better as the rebuild and parity check speeds are significantly faster than on test2.

Speed sounds normal to me.

Speed is actually around 20.5MB/s. Its odd as when I write from an external source to the server I get 30MB/s+.

There are 3 disks involved copying internally,  only two externally, I guess that's what slows things down.  My system has pretty much the same speeds.
