Title: Looks like the DNS 345 is gonzo.
Post by: Leathal on September 03, 2015, 03:53:20 PM

Dlink Canada and the USA have pulled the DNS 345 from their site all together with no replacement for it.

So I bought a Seagate 4 bay recently, and what an improvement. I have the same 2TB WD Reds in my Seagate NAS as I do my DNS 345. I have teaming/load balanced enabled on the Nics. I have a Dell 6224 managed l3 switch and I use Cat6 cables on both. When I transfer a 2GB file to the DNS 345 is gets around 10-15MB/s in Windows 8.1 Enterprise. On the Seagate I get 30 to 35MB/s for the same file. It diffidently looks like the NIC coding isn't 100% stable in the DNS 345.

Still located here:

I see 70-100Mb xfer read rates on my 345 on wired connections thru a un-managed Gb switch. 20-30Mb if using wireless.

I presume the NIC code is stable.

100Mb/sec is simply not possible on the DNS-345 NAS/SAN. The hardware inside doesn't have the ability to sustain those rates. It would need at least 1GB of memory and a faster CPU. lol

It seems to be working on my 345 just fine.
What FW version is currently loaded? I'm still using v1.03 on mine.
