Hi folks, new Synology (and this forum) user, finally gave up on HP MSS and WHS V1.. I have searched this site for answers but have not found a full answer yet. Thanx for listening, love this brain trust.. Background - Purchased DS418, added 4 2TB seagate IW NAS ST2000VN004 drives. Loaded HTTPS security. I am now beginning to restore my files from my PC HDD's to the DS418.
My issue is how long this is taking. My first action was to restore my photos (921GB). Did drag and drop, File station was estimating 58 days to complete... (Really?) new something was amiss... I found one thread here that recommended the better SMB settings, and turning off transport encryption... that helped dramatically, now estimate for remaining 810GB is 9days/15 hours.. Still a long time? looks like I am running about 1mb/sec with that estimate. The file station graph (and mouse over on upload icon) jumps around a lot... from 5kb up to 20mb? Is this transfer speed normal?
I am using a Netgear GB switch, pc (windows) and DS both show network as 1GB. Using SHR on my DS volume.
PS... my new DS folders are full of the MODD files from my Sony RX100 camera, I don't remember seeing those on my MSS? I understand their definition.. just seems like they are a new artifact on my DS...
Thank you for the assistance!!
