I went to copy from local disk to local disk (using cp -R) and was getting
6MB/s speeds. It upped to 15MB/s with a large, single 500MB files. I get
90+MB/s write speed to these *same drives* via ftp over the Gb lan.
[root@freenas]cp -R /mnt/disk1 /mnt/disk2
I'm no expert, but I'm not sure why my internal disk->disk transfers
are so cripplingly slow using cp.
Note - I tested transfers to the other 2 local disks on this box and it was the same.
Disks are connected to motherboard SATA ports, not via a peripheral card.
