NFS - My Compliments to D-Link
« on: June 15, 2009, 05:18:53 PM »

The NFS addin is great.  I've been throwing VMWare ESXi 4.0 at the DNS-323 and have had a great experience so far.  I have nothing else that's remotely close that can stress my NAS like this.   

At the moment I'm writing a sustainable 5.9MB/sec (47Mb/sec) and reading 17.9MB/sec (143 Mb/sec).    NFSD is at 33% while writing and 83% while reading.  It seems the io subsystem is the bottleneck for performance.

What's great is with all of the random reads & writes expected from VM/ESXi, NFS doesn't seem to be unstable whatsoever during operation. 

My only gripe is when I reboot the 323, I lose my NFS config.

Have you had any problems with the 323 freezing up while using NFS? It is described in this thread: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=5582.0

Could you please tell me where you find the NFS Server. ? I've upgraded to the beta 1.08 for just this as the UPnP server does not serve my Omnifi DMS1s. Yet cannot find it on any of the pages.

TIA

No I haven't had any problems with it freezing; albeit i'm only actively using NFS for 2-3 hours at a time.  The service always stays running, though.
