ewlwstp Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I currently have Unraid 3.0 running with no problems and love it. I am using the Aopen i855GMEm-LFS motherboard which has dual Marvell gigabit lan. I have two questions, does Unraid support dual lan? And if it does, will I see any increase in speed by connecting the other port to either the same switch or a different one? Quote Link to comment
mutant_matt Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I would have thought you'd have to really be hammering the server to need the extra bandwidth, and I doubt Tom would be interested in doing anything clever like teaming, so you'd just have two IP addresses/server names/shares at best. There *might* be a use for it if you had many multiple access streams taking place at once, like multiple music streams, and multiple video streams all at once, like in a house with say 4 people in different rooms accessing different content. HTH! Matt Quote Link to comment
TheMaster Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Has anyone actually connected this second LAN port to identify what functionality (if any) exists within unRAID 3.0? The benchmarking seems to indicate that the LAN connection is still the limiting factor in large data transfers. Quote Link to comment
