Apple Video Environment -SLOW

[robertdalco]

I have the log files and can find the HDPARM but don't know what I am looking at. What do you want to see.

How much MB/s

[robertdalco]

Max I get on large video files is 30MB/s. As a NAS or iSCSItransfer. Was thinking I should get between 60 and 90 MB/s -preferably on the high side

open test.log with a text editor and find this line

hdparm -t

you should find a line like this one ( but with your number )

Timing buffered disk reads: 208 MB in 3.02 seconds = 68.95 MB/sec

post here the xx.xxMB/s you have

What MAC OS are you running ?

I have two different postings under HDPARM

hdparm -t /dev/sda *----------*/dev/sda: Timing buffered disk reads: 60 MB in 3.09 seconds = 19.43 MB/sec

hdparm -t /dev/sdb *---------*/dev/sdb: Timing buffered disk reads: 1014 MB in 3.20 seconds = 316.85 MB/sec

This is telling me what? Are there any key setting I can change?

This is telling you how much MB/s Open-E is able to obtain directly from your system , every time Open-E boot it does a series of test and put it into file test.log so with this information technician could help you.

Could you send me PM(Private Message)your complete .gz file , I will look at it because I don't know why you have sda with so much slow transfer , sdb is ok , do you have some external USB Drive or any other hard drive than the one connect to your ARECA Raid Card?

sda is probably the USB dongle and ranges from 20-30MB/s in our systems. sdb is probably the first SAS logical volume.
