How to tuning SMB/CIFS for TimeMachine ?

Hello everyone,

I was kinda confuse how to tuning SMB/CIFS speed for my timemachine, I've following this thread https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php?thread/12986-tunning-samba-for-more-speed/&pageNo=1 s but somehow it is stopped cannot accessed my share folder

I'm using Raspberry PI 4 Model B

Current extra option

log level = 1
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536
read raw = yes
write raw = yes
max xmit = 65535
dead time = 15
getwd cache = yes

Any help ?

If you think that adding the extra options broke something, just remove them.

I tried tuning SMB/CIFS for better speed many times, got no benefits at all and just gave up on it. I no longer use SMB/CIFS so the point is moot.

Nah, I tried to put it the default option

min receivefile size = 16384
write cache size = 524288
getwd cache = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY

Somehow the SMB/CIFS still cannot be accessed kinda confused been reboot but the result still the same

I seem to remember that there were no extra options at all when I started playing with this. But what you have in there shouldn't break anything.

So do I, and what do you recommend if not using SMB/CIFS for TM ?

I have no Windows machines here, only Linux. So I use NFS.

So does TM will work with NFS ?

Ah I see, well after I reinstall and change the wifi to 5G seems work very well now, quite fast.
