I am new to FreeNAS but I did a lot of homework before ordering any parts so here is my parts list then the description of my write speed issue and hopefully where I should look to make improvements.
1. (SuperMicro) SSG-6047R-E1R24L SuperServer 4U (No RAID card this is a JBOD only)
2. 2ea.Intel Xeon Quad-Core E5-2609V2 2.5GHz Ivy Bridge-E
3. 8ea. 16GB DDR3-1600 1.35V 2Rx4 LP ECC REG
4. AOC-SGP-i4 (4 Port NIC 1GB) in addition to the 4 built in NICs
5. Twenty one Seagate Constellation ES.3 (4TB SAS) 5 year warranty
6. Three 120GB SSD for Cache & logs mounted with Newer Tech AdaptaDrive in 3 adjacent main drive bays
7. Two 1TB WD Red in optional rear facing 2 drive SATA mount (This is for the FreeNAS OS)
I am in testing phase using just eight 4TB SAS drives and the 3 SSDs for my pools. I have a RAIDZ2 shared out as an iSCSI share. I have a ESXi 5.5 VM host running on an SSD with GB NIC and a 2008R2 server located on a FreeNAS iSCSI share. Since I am in testing there is nothing else connected to FreeNAS or ESXi host.
I am in a segregated part of my network so nearly no traffic. I have an Gb 24 port HP Pro Curve PoE swith with
When I send the same files back to the FreeNAS server v. 9.3 I am getting 63MB/second speeds.
My PC has spinning HD at 7,200RPM and my MacBook has a 6G SSD and yet the times are consistently within 1 second of the same?
Any ideas where to look to improve the write speeds would be greatly appreciated & thanks to all.....:)
