FreeNAS 9.3 running on Workstation 12 Lab
USB 3 connected hard drive attached as Physical Drive through vm
I am new to FreeNAS and chose to do a test install on a vm built in Workstation 12. It was a fairly easy setup and the FreeNAS_Share appears to work, however, with an oddity I am hoping a more experienced FreeNAS user can explain.
When I do read/writes from the machine running Workstation and the FreeNAS vm, say from the FreeNAS_Share to and from the desktop I get a read/write speed of around 8 MB/s. Now, if I go to another machine on the network and do the same to/from its desktop I get a read/write speed of 36 MB/s. I get that same result from every machine on the network, except, the one the FreeNAS vm runs on. I have been trying to figure out why this is occuring and have drawn a blank. Is what's going on inherant to the workings of FreeNAS? Any help understanding this behavior would be appreciated.
Thank you,
