Slow write speeds


Recommended Posts

Hi All...

 

I'm very new to Unraid.  I've got 6.8.3 installed and I've bonded eth0 and eth1 (802.3ad) (each 1gb).  I've setup 4 disk (3-disks for data, 1-disk for parity) and 1 nvme for cache.  I'm having issue with write speeds.  I'm only getting a max of 46MB/s on writing data to my test share.  This speed is constant.  I can write from a VM to my PC and get over 100MB/s.  I've also tried setting up a 10GB network card connecting to my VM and there I'm getting 280 MB/s constant.  I've already changed "Tunable (md_write_method)" to reconstruct write and I didn't see any changes.

 

Please let me know what else you need from me so that I can get this issue resolved.

 

Thanks

Thank you @johnnie.black.  I just ran iperf3 on it and I found my issue.  I had a brain fart and realized that i had to go through my router since it was on a different vlan (unraid to servers).  I changed the IP address and it now is transferring at over 100 MB/s.  Although...the 10GB network (direct connect) is not getting the write speeds like what iperf3 is showing:

iperf Done.
 

File transfer is going at 283 MB/s.

 

Any idea on that? (it's not all that bad after all)
