French-Guy Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Are my transfer speeds within the standards, or should I try to “teak” for improvement: All my disks are on SATA II controllers On my current 5.0.5 Unraid server: • From my laptop - wifi: ~20 Mb (laptop downstairs, router upstairs) • From my desktop – wired: ~35Mb On my test server 6.1.9 where I’ve installed a 64GB SSD: • Same speed over wifi (~20Mb) • From my desktop – wired: ~70Mb Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 • From my desktop – wired: ~70Mb All the others look normal, this one is difficult to say without knowing all the hardware, especially, cpu, nic and ssd. Link to comment

CPU is AMD Athlon X2 250 NIC is from the mother board (Biostar A785GE) SSD is Kingston SSDNow 64Gb Sata II Link to comment
French-Guy Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Is the SSD cache drive? Yes, cache drive Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Looks about right, assuming it’s a V series SSD, you should get close to gigabit speed with a bigger SSD (usually SSD write speed greatly increases with capacity), although a better CPU may also be needed for optimal performance.

French-Guy Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 OK, so I won't keep that SSD, it was for a test Now, I would like to reuse it on a PC to install windows Since it was XFS file format, it seems to be not recognized when I boot the PC How should I proceed to make it a"normal" HDD, and detected by my motherboard (I don't care about whatever might be on this drive right now)... Thanks Link to comment
