March 17, 201313 yr Hi All, i have completed my Unriad build one month ago, my setup is: Supermicro MBD-X9SCM-F-O Intel Xeon Quad-Core E3-1230V2 16GB's of ECC RAM 120GB SSD Cache Drive 4x 3TB Seagate 7200 RPM Sata Hard Drives my problem has been mention before in the forums but never with a clear solution, and im a complete linux noob im using a Draytek Vigor 2130n Router connected to a Cisco 16 port Gigabit Switch, my whole home is wierd with Cat6 Cables now my problem is when i transfer Big folders to my User Shares ( Like movies) the transfer starts fast at around 210MB/s for 1 minute then drops to 2MB/s and keeps going lower till the transfer completes. i use AFP Protocol because im using a mac mini (weird Ethernet Connection) to transfer 60 GB movies from my Mac to the unraid it can take up 8 Hours im in the process of transferring 3TB of Movies and TV Shows to the Unraid but the Speed is killing me and i have no idea what the bottle neck is.. please help Regards, Ammar
March 17, 201313 yr You are not alone. A lot of people with x9scm boards and over 4GB of memory are having problems. Check http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=22675.0 You could try the rc11 version and use the new boot menu to select 'max 4GB' and see if that solves it. Beware rc11 might introduce other issues like extreme slow parity checks...
March 17, 201313 yr Also use the "dirtyable" parameter mentioned in that thread. Your speed issues will be fixed.
March 17, 201313 yr Author thank you for your responses i have been using 5.0-rc11 since i started, i read about the "dirtyable" but u have no idea where i should do it and how and what is a go file ? and how do i add it to my go file ? im sorry as i mentioned earlier im new and im still learning so please bare with me Regard, Ammar
March 17, 201313 yr Also use the "dirtyable" parameter mentioned in that thread. Your speed issues will be fixed. Is this true? I didn't know there was a solid fix for the problem. I read that the issue came back after a couple of hours.
March 17, 201313 yr Dirtyable and em setting fixes this for all as far as I know, it is a fix though, still unknown what causes it.
