I had an unraid system i put together using old computer parts. I needed a bigger case for expanded storage. i got one and at the same time i upgraded everything. before i get yelled at i know i went overboard and thats just me. i know it doesnt take much to run unraid os my transfer speeds are now horrible im talking about less than 2MB/s speeds writing to a user shared folder. here is my current set up

ASRock 890FX DELUXE3 AM3 AMD 890FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard (liked had 8 sata ports)

CORSAIR Builder Series CX430 CMPSU-430CX 430W ATX12V Active PFC Power Supply

AMD Athlon II X2 250 Regor 3.0GHz Socket AM3 65W Dual-Core Processor ADX250OCGQBOX

G.SKILL NS 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-4GBNS

 

i have in there 4x2TB WD green drives plus i now have pro and previously i had the free OS. before i was getting maybe close to 10MB/s i was hoping getting new eqp would be better never would have thought i would go backwards. im on wrt310n router all my cables are cat 6 i got gigabit all through out my network is there something in bios i might need to enable to get the ethernet port optimized or is that all in the OS and set up? i need faster than 2MB this is crazy thanks guys!

You should be getting faster transfer speeds than that.  Do your WD green drives need/have the jumpers installed?  That would be my first guess.

 

You can try using a PCI based NIC card to see if that helps, you can also try a different cable to see if it works better.
