I've been a FreeNAS user for YEARS, and I LOVE it!
It came time to upgrade my drives, and with that, I also upgraded to 8.0 to get the ZFS support.
Here are my Specs:
FreeNAS Build: FreeNAS-8.0.1-RELEASE-amd64 (8081)
Motherboard: MSI (Micro Star) MS-7592 (G41M4-F)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz
Memory: 8GB
Controller: Promise SATA300 TX4
Ethernet: 1GB (on HP GigaBit Managed Switch)
Storage: 4 x 3TB WD in RAID-Z1
Sharing: CIFS
Whenever I write to the NAS via SMB, I average about 60MB/s. I'm not disappointed in that, although some indicate that I should be getting faster speeds.
What is killing me is my READ speed. I read at 2MB/s which is UNBEARABLE.
In my Samba config I have these options enabled:
Large RW support
Send files with sendfile(2)
EA Support
Support DOS File Attributes
Enable AIO
I thought it might be the controller, so I used the on-board controller instead, but had the exact same results.
What am I doing wrong? Why is my read speed so terrible?
