Hi all,
I've been running OMV6 on a PC over a 1 GBE link successfully for a while but both my Desktop PC and my NAS PC are capable of 2.5GBE so I decided to upgrade the network.
Today I installed a new 2.5 GBE switch so I can get my full speed, but I have an unexpected issue:
- Writing a large 6 GB file to OMV from a Win 10 PC = I get the full 2.5 gigabits
- Reading a large 6 GB file from OMV to the same PC = The maximum speed is 1 gigabit
- The OMV hard disk is capable of sequential read/writes of about 250 MB/s so I'm confident the drive is not the issue (tested)
- I tried different Ethernet cables
- My OMV PC is running the latest updates
I found it very strange that the reads are capped at exactly 1 gigabit, but the writes are reaching full speed. Normally you would expect the opposite to happen...
This is so confusing, any suggestions what to check?
