April 1, 201511 yr Does anyone have a Mac that accesses unRAID using SMB and gets decent file transfer rates via the finder? I upgraded my main PC at Home (MacPro) to Yosemite (10.10.2) and now I only get about 1GB/5 min transfer. Needless to say I'm pulling my hair out. I have also never been able to get NFS to work since Mountain Lion. I do have another machine (Snow Leopard - 10.6.8 ) where SMB access works just fine, its about 10 times faster. Any idea what the problem might be? I've tried forcing CIFS access with no change (vs SMB2 or 3, whatever Apple is using).
April 1, 201511 yr Not sure sorry, I have a 2013 rMBP and use SMB regularly with unRAID. No such issues.
April 2, 201511 yr Author Just to be clear It's only when transferring files between shares or from the computer to the share. When accessing files on the server, with Plex, or a Music Player for example, they play fine, even high bit rate ones. It's really pretty unusable. I just checked and a 20 GB transfer from one disk share to another on the Yosemite machine was bouncing around between 1-2 hours, on the Snow Leopard machine it took about 20 min. Physically the machines are sitting right next to each other and plugged into the same switch. The Snow Leopard MAchine is th an Early 2008 MAcPro and the Yosemite machine is a late 2012 MacPro.
