New Test - Trial license rubbish through put

[Pi-L]

any chances you are using your 100mbps card instead of 1gb?

[Newbie_From_Hell]

lol, no

i did check that, all connections were in at one point, but now i am testing on a single gigabit link, with nothing else connected.

i really can't understand why we are limited to so slow a connection, its very disappointing, i know the hardware isn't great but it should function better then a old PC with 1 HDD in surely

Is your trial licence still active? Please note that after 60 days since volume group creation trial is over and bandwidth limited to 100mpbs.

how do i check what speed the nic is connected as, its a gigabit nic (e1000) but i want to make sure it negotiated at 1000 not 100??

The best would be if you could open a support ticket and send us your logs so support team can analyse if everything is configured properly.

ok i'll do that

but out of interest how do you check what speed the lan port is connected as, as the more i think about this and the more i test, the more it makes sense that its connecting at 100mb, but other devices are connecting at 1Gb and this one does when booting to bartpe

thanks

Further update

booted to a centos live cd, and ran there disc benchmark tool, reports a 400MB/s average 250MB/s

so short of flatting the array and building a linux / win2008 system on it i don't know what else i can test

network seems fine (between 2 W7 machines i can copy quickly" the array seems to match what we would expect from the hardware.

if open-e can suggest something i'm all ears
