DigitalDivide Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Not sure if this is normal but I noticed that when coping a blu ray mkv file, the copy speed to my laptop's external USB 3 drive is really slow. I'm getting 10MB/s. I'm wired into my router. Seems awfully slow. Should I be expecting better? Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Are your router, server and laptop 100Mbit or all gigabit? If the later did check the link speed, both on the unRAID server and your laptop. Link to comment
DigitalDivide Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Router is gibabit but my laptop is 100. How do I check the link speed? From my tower eth0: 1000 Mb/s, full duplex, mtu 1500 Link to comment

DigitalDivide Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Really? I guess I'm getting confused between 100Mbps and 100MB/s...is that it? Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Yes, 100Mbit ethernet maxes at around 12MB/s, gigabit maxes at around 115MB/s. Link to comment
DigitalDivide Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 Ok thanks. I stick to wireless where I'm getting 30. Link to comment
