Hi Everyone, Merry Christmas!
I'm quite new to OMV and this is my first post, please go easy on me!
I'm having a transfer speed issue (at least I think it should be way faster)
My setup is as follow:
- Raspberry Pi 3b+
- OMV 4
- 3 HDD (1 x 500GB 2.5, 1 x 1TB 2.5, 1 x 2TB 3.5) connected to a 5V powered USB3.0 HUB which is connected to the PI
- Formatted as EXT4
- Combined to a Linear Raid (JBOD I believe is that called)
- Sufficient power supply (5V for the PI and USB hub; 12V for 3.5 HDD)
- Connected to router via network cable
I use it mostly as a media server (plex) along with transmission
Shared folders are:
- AppData (currently empty)
- Downloads (for transmission)
- Media (for plex)
The issue now is as follow:
When I copy downloads (on my windows laptop, mapped network drive) from the "Downloads" folder to one of the sub-folders in "Media" the transfer speed fluctuates somewhere between 2.5 - 3.5 MB/sec.
When I upload files from my computer to OMV its around 5-8MB/sec, download is about the same.
I notice that the transfer speed goes up (ie to 3.5MB/sec) but then goes down to 2.5MB/sec, then it goes up again, down again and so on.
This is a new setup. The previous setup (only 1 drive 500GB directly connected to the PI) copying within shared folders was super fast and download speed was quite stable at 12MB/sec.
Appreciate any feedback!
