HellDiverUK Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Folks, Would love to see SMB3 support via SAMBA 4. I see most of the COTS NAS units are moving to SMB3 (Synology & Asustor in beta, QNAP), and I really like the added performance thanks to reduced overhead, especially to wireless clients. Should be a pretty trivial upgrade? Quote Link to comment

Should be a pretty trivial upgrade? +1 to this, even more so if it fixes the Windows 10 SMB2&SMB3 issue that is causing issues for many users. I hated that I had to go to cmd on Windows to disable SMB2 and SMB3 just to get Unraid working like it used to....I would love to be able to undo that change and have the same performance.

Darksurf Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 yes this is a need +1 Quote Link to comment
Adam64 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Is there a feedback loop on this to know if it's been accepted, or at least being considered? I really like unRAID, but the SMB is so unreliable it is hard on me. Sometimes I have to click on the unraid share 5 or 6 times before it finally works (says "not found" several times, then will suddenly start working). Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 +1 Especially if it supports SMB 3.0 multichannel, very easy way to double Ethernet speed without requiring smart switch, works great on windows 2012 and 8/10. Quote Link to comment
jonp Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 From my understanding, the latest samba does not have multichannel support yet. That's only found in Windows systems right now. Quote Link to comment

I think you’re right, it’s being worked on, works very well on windows without any configuration, hope to see it in Unraid when available.

FWIW, I think my SMB issues were caused by a bad NIC or bad NIC driver. Quote Link to comment
guyonphone Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I would also like this feature Quote Link to comment

That's actually pretty shocking to me, because based on your discrption I would have assumed it was the problem I was having prior to disabling the SMB 2&3 client on my Windows PC.
