The source and target aren't near each other, and I'm not trying to move anything. That's the goal of the current setup. They don't need to be close. I'm unsure what issue you're facing. With the bad port, my speed was capped at 10MB/s. Once that changed, I'm limited by the destination write rate—currently around 50MB/s with uncached unraid. I'm averaging five times faster than that, so tasks that used a day now take hours. Read speeds aren't slowing me down. The time spent trying to speed things up wouldn't offset the gains. This has been ongoing since I began this discussion. I'm considering upgrading unraid with cache disks, which would help for regular use but not right now because I'm moving many files.
