Nozlo Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 I will include screenshots for a visual example. I am hardwired into my LAN which is capable of gig speeds. That being said, when I transfer a file from my PC to a share, also loacted via a SSD cache drive, it is transfering at 90 to 110MB/s. I just transfered 110gb of files over to the server and it took 20 minutes. My PC was sending around 800Mbps out and the server was recieving about 800Mbps, so that makes sense. At first I thought that it was 110Megabytes per second which would equal 880Mbps - but with that calculation, it should have transfered all of this data in 3.8 minutes - ALMOST a gig a second. Am I missing something here? The SSD cache drive should be transfering data a LOT faster.

JorgeB Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 You are confusing gigabit with gigabyte, gigabit LAN can transfer at around 110MB/s, only 10GbE Ethernet can transfer at 1GB/s+ Quote

I would need to by 10GbE cards for the computers that I want transfering at that speed. Why is task manager showing I am sending files at 800+Mbps? Quote
JorgeB Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 You are transferring at 800Mbits/s, not 800Megabytes/s. Quote
