Tim Whenever we've seen this sort or performance and those errors at our shop, it's invariably been the auto-negotiation of the ethernet speed and duplex mode. Eg if the NIC is supposed to be running 100Mbits/s and Full duplex, then force this explicitly on both the NIC and the ethernet switch (or whatever).
If you leave them to auto-negotiate (especially if both are set to auto-negotiate) then you're liable to finish up with the NIC running at half duplex and the switch port running at full duplex. This impacts performance massively, especially as during a client backup there is data being sent in both directions. Regards Neil Schofield Yorkshire Water Services Ltd.
