I just put together a "new" box for my NAS and I'm having some weird issues with write speed. I tried to copy a 890MB file using FileZilla client to my NAS-Lite v2.02 USB box. Initial speed seem to be ok but then it just stops completely every now and then only to resume with lower performance a few seconds later. This only happens when writing to the disk, transfering _from_ the server to client presents no such issues.

I tried using the same switch + cat5 cable to my laptop and redoing the transfer with no problems whatsoever.

My first thought was that the disk was malfunctioning but I just ran a complete error check using the manufacturers utility and it came out 100% working. Truly odd.. if anyone has any idea I'd appriciate it.

Hardware is ABIT KT7A-RAID AMD Duron 800, 3x128MB PC133 SDRAM, LSI-Megaraid 150-4 SATA Raid card, Single Maxtor Maxline III 300 GB 16MB buffer.

Just ordered 2x SAMSUNG SPINPOINT 250GB SATA/300 NCQ 7200RPM 8MB to replace the maxtor to eliminate the risk of the drive being broken.

Problem is still there after replacing the previous drives

Any help would be greatly appriciated! Would an IRQ conflict cause similiar problems?

Hi,

Run diskwriggler and post the output you get.

^C

Aborted after a while since the output already shows the problem.. just to clarify, I've used the exact same cable and switch to a diff box and it shows none of these issues.

Looks to me like the drivers don't like the card or the card don't like the drivers. Either way I would try replacing it with a 3Com 3C905 or one of the intel NICs and see if the problem persists.

I'm using a 3C905 already

I will try replacing it with another one if I can find.

Replaced with a Realtek 8139 but problem persists.... damn this is annoying. Anyone got a clue what could be causing this?

I will try replacing it with another one if I can find.

To bad you're not close, I only have about 10 of them sitting around. :cry:

I haven't a clue, when it starts you are getting great throughput, 11+MB/sec WOW. I assume that you have everything not in use turned off on the MB and there is nothing sharing the IRQs? Have you updated the BIOS on the MB? Try reseting the BIOS and turning off everything again. Also, I mightt try a different power supply, if it has issues then.....

Sounds like your LSI card doesn't like being with that board. If it starts fast and then drops, then the buffer gets full and things have to slow down and wait on the drives.

Then flashing the BIOS may help or solve the problem. That is about all I can think of to do.

Thx of the support guys! Having searched through google groups I'm convinced its an IRQ problem. Found the following in a thread about IRQ conflicts on the KT7(a/a-raid):

...The symptom I'm having is that periodically when I'm transferring data on the net, my system freezes for about a second. Audio playback stutters, mouse movement stops, and any screen movement stops. After about a second, everything resumes to normal. How do I get my network card to use a different IRQ? I thought that moving it to another PCI slot would do it....

No luck so far.. as ACPI is forced enabled in the official BIOS updates I used a modded version to get it disabled. Im quite sure I have 0 IRQ conflicts atm but the problem persists

I've tried replacing the RAM etc but to no use... anymore of this and I'll throw this POS-PC out the window :evil:

Could this be due to some setting on the actual LSI board?

That would be greatly appriciated! If possible I would also like to know what your card placement is like (what card in what PCI slot etc) and corresponding bios settings for IRQs.
