Hi
DNS-345 latest firmware (Beta), 4 x Seagate ST2000DM001 in raid 5, SMB/CIFS connection, single redundant LAN connection.
DNS-345 >Dlink Gigabit Switch > Win7 64
As seen by the PC, 1GB file:
Download 90MB/s sustained
Upload 40GB/s sustained
I have been using Qnap for years now, the Download speed is higher than the TS-639 I have.
I can with reasonable confidence say that the Qnap as a company and their software on their product is a total POS, their hardware is very nice but we the Qnap users have been suffering for years with substandard firmware that Qnap has no interest in fixing.
I came here from DNS-343 and was smitten by its simplicity, true function and purpose, the DNS-345 is much faster but preseves what I've always liked in the earlier model.
