jeneeben Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hi, i am currently building my new NAS. Coming from a QNAP system, i chose Unraid. The last couple of days i was reading, comparing and testing different solutions. I think Unraid is the way to go. My hardware are following: - Ryzen 5 1600 (Ryzen 5 2600X was planned, but had a issue) - 32 GB RAM - 12 x 8 TB WD RED (will be extended to 16 x 8 TB) - 2 x 1 TB nvme SSDs - 1gb LAN connection - 10gb connection to my PC My initial Setup in Unraid is: - 10 x WD REDs as data - 2 x WD REDs for parity - 2 x 1 TB nvme SSD for cache My transfer rates are between 600MB/s and 700 MB/s, using the cache with MTU of 9014. From what i understand, as soon i won't use the cache (reading Files from HDD) the performance will drop...i couldn't test it yet, because i am waiting for the parity-sync to be finished. Is there any possibilites to increase the performance? (transfer to cache and also reading from HDDs) Can i tweak some settings? Thanks, Jeneeben Quote Link to comment
