Looking back at this thread's title, I can't help it anymore...

PS: She's likely a server (in a bar)

I don't know how I missed this post but not a bad rack. [emoji12]

In the Show off your rig thread, when you suggested a Show off you rack fork, there were concerns it might attract the wrong crowd...

 

Here I am ! :D

Doesn't it make it tough to work on? It looks good, though

I also wonder about ventilation, fresh intake / warm exhaust??? Doors look like glass or plexi (?)

 

WAF guaranteed though!

Here is my rack.

And here is my read write speed on my new Home server, using a landing disk in my Drivebender pool

Thanks for looking.

@@scalda - so writing to the Drive Bender pool is pretty quick, at 5.25Gbps :)

It has nothing to do with drivebender, it's the speed of the drives :P

Yes it is a pretty quick write speed that i am very happy with. the read speed is even better at nearly 10Gb :)

What SSD are you using?

yes it is because of that but it allows me to write to it very quickly and then DB will move it all later to allow me to larger write speeds and also don't hog the HDDs up to much

and this is the ssd i have in it at the moment i may upgrade to a samsung evo 850 in the future

I've got a pair of EVO 850 drives for my stablebit pool. I get about 400 MB/s, but on a large transfer after a while it drops to about 250 MB/s. I'm starting to look for a drive that can sustain high transfer speeds.

I have real time duplication on mine, that probably has something to do with it. But they still can't sustain that rate with a large transfer.

What sort of size are you looking at as a large transfer?

30GB or bigger

 

Ok i can't test for that but i just ran a 8Gb test which is the largest i can do with that utility and got the below speed

So seems to be the larger the file thee slower it can be

Exactly. The HDs, OS, switch and NICs can adjust the bandwidth. Most commonly the HD. They have burst rates and sustain rates. Plus, that test software doesn't seem to allow multipath, which I use. The only way to truly test is do an actual transfer. Edited by Doofus
