Title: DNS-320 time machine LAN speed
Post by: wierer-sigi on November 17, 2015, 10:29:52 AM
Hallo,

I have setup my DNS320 with the new Firmware 2.05. Connected to a small Cisco Router with 1GB LAN.

Now I have started Time Machine and after 24h 107GB from 700 GB are transmitted. When I started the Time Machine Backup, the system told me less than 6 hour.

When I look on the traffic via i-stat pro I see that the traffic varies between 1k/sec and 10 M/sec.

This means it will take up to 6 days.

Has anybody an idea what can I do to make it faster.

I use the following equipment.

DNS 320 - V 2.05 - Raid 1 - two identical Samsung HDD 1500 GB ( HD154UI )
IiMac 27 i7 - OSX 10.11.1 with SSD Samsung 840 Pro
Switch Cisco SD20008 behind a Speedport W921V

Thank you in advance

Regards Sigi

Are both DNS and iMac connected to the Gb LAN switch or is one connected to the main host router?
Both should be connected to the external Gb switch for best performance.
Use CAT6 LAN cables for best performance.
