January 22, 201610 yr Hi all, I am currently running a fairly old UnRaid system (hardware-wise) that typically writes at 10MB/s. I see others reporting 20-30 without cache drives (I don't have a cache). What sort of information can I supply that would help with determining how I can increase performance? Is there a way to know what motherboard, memory and CPU I have without opening the case (i.e. remotely)? I'm currently on 5.06 and the system has been working well for at least several months. Thanks! Brian
January 22, 201610 yr Sounds like you don't have Gigabit ethernet. Nobody can get more than 10 or so with 100Mb ethernet.
January 22, 201610 yr Author The computer I'm reading/writing to is new, so I'm assuming it is Gigabit, but if the card/MB in the NAS is not, then all I need to do is add a network card? How can I check for sure? (I know the network switch is Gigabit.) B.
January 23, 201610 yr Author supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full advertised link modes: same link partner advertised link modes: same as above Speed: 100Mb/s Duplex: Full There was more, but this is what you are after, no?

A quick search of the forums seems to suggest that others have had success with this card and unRAID dating back to v5. Just make sure you have a spare PCIe port, if of course this is how you want to use that port.
January 29, 201610 yr Author Can't believe I didn't do this before! Thanks for the help! Now, I will have to check into a cache pool. Do I need v6 for this? Thanks, Brian
