Problem between Z1 pool and NIC

Hello,

I have an issue where the performance of my nas somehow gets bottlenecked between my Z1 pool and my NIC.

I’ve benchmarked this by saturating RAM with large videofiles and then copying an even larger video file to make sure nothing is reading from the cache.

The benchmarks reads as follows:

NAS Z1 (5discs) pool -> NAS Nvme pool = 550 - 620mb/s
NAS Nvme -> Local computer over 10gbe network = 1.13gb/s
NAS Z1 (5discs) -> Local computer over 10gbe network = 250 - 350mb/s

As you can see, my Z1 pool performs as expected when copying files to the Nvme pool inside my NAS.
The 10gbe network also performs as expected when copying from the Nvme pool over the network to my local computer.

What doesn't make sense is when I copy files from the Z1 pool over the 10gbe network, I cannot figure out what bottlenecks my performance here.

Asus X99 A-II
Intel i7 6800k
4 x 8gb Corsair 2400Mhz
Intel X540-t2
5 x WD RED 4TB (CMR) (All connected to the same controller)
1 x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 250gb
