Hello everyone!

i am new at Freenas, but i love it, and i really what to make the most of it.

I Have 2 questions

1 i have all my computers on my network can connect to freenas, but the speed its very low, about 1,6mb its the same of my Internet connection on is limit, i try to open the ftp ports on my router but nothing happens... just for understanding, i have a thompson router they have 4 Ethernet ports and wireless connection, and connect to this router i have one switch on my lab with 8 ports thats on that switch is the freenas installed.

All the computer can connect even on wireless of the router. what can i do to speed up my NAS?

2 in this moment i just have pens on nas to testing speed, i am thinking on 2 tb drive os WD Green series what its your opinion people?


Thanks and sorry for my English.

Hi gas17,

What happens to your speed when you have a client connected directly into the same switch that the FreeNAS box is on?

Personally I'm not a fan of the Green drives (I have no real reason for this), but depending on what you are hoping to get out of them\what your needs & expectations are they can be a perfectly fine drive. Just remember that the Green drives simply aren't that fast, but they might work perfectly fine for your application.
