Samba Transfer Speed on Raspberry Pi 4

  • Hello,


    is there a way to get higher transfer speeds for samba on my rpi4? Currently i am getting around 70mb/s, but with ftp i reach up to 110-120mb/s.
    I did the hdparm test and the results were okay, same with iperf.


    Setup:
    Raspberry Pi 4 - 4GB RAM
    Powered USB 3.0 Hub
    1x WD Elements 6TB via USB 3.0 - Filesystem ext4
    1x regular 2TB HDD via USB 3.0 - Filesystem ext4


    Here are my settings:
    min receivefile size = 16384
    write cache size = 524288
    getwd cache = yes
    socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536
    read raw = yes
    write raw = yes
    max xmit = 65535
    dead time = 15


    Does anybody get higher transfer rates or is 70mb/s the max with samba?


    Thanks in advance.

  • Update:


    Found my error!
    My problem was the way my operation system (Linux Mint) mounted the network shares.
    I had a little app installed called gigolo, which auto-mounted my network shares via gfvs-mount.
    After deleting the app and manually mounting the shares via /etc/fstab, the transfer speed is alright (over or around 100 mb/s in read and write).


    Really glad this worked out in the end...
