Yep, sure, but as I said, that machine is a diskless machine, so / is actually NFS mounted from the old NFS server :) hence /tmp is already on the NFS server. The new NFS (netgear nas) is mounted under /mnt/nas/media. > That apart, I'd love to hear about those other issues, and figure out > why is it at 834 kB/s :) Yep, me too :) > We established that with a 100M LAN, we can't expect more than 10MB/s. > That's important for home users.

(I think all, not only some NIC's, not sure) AFAIK, you only need to upgrade the connections to the PC's that want/need the faster speeds, plus the NAS device itself (and switch). > Allow me a few questions, if you have the time: > On the netgear, are you using its build raid1? Hot swap works? Yes, using built-in RAID1 Not entirely sure... I've removed/plugged a drive while it was switched on, and it seemed to work, but I haven't tested removing a drive, and plugging in a blank one. I want to get the more basic stuff working first (like decent performance over NFS). > Do you use the torrent capability (probably off subject) No, I've disabled all the extras...

No problem :) I'm thinking that I should have sprung for the bigger netgear nas, or else the QNAP one, (QNAP sounded really good, and has a great feature list... possibly worth it though considering the amount of time I've wasted so far on the netgear :( I'm not suggesting the netgear is crap BTW, just it doesn't work for me yet...
