RE: Is your setup flawed ?

I've never played with TrueNAS but had some ZFS experience before I retired.

I can do link aggregation on my Synology NAS but I can't do it with my cheapie unmanaged Gigabit switches so the 1-Gigabit limit will still be there. A 10-Gigabit switch would be nice but those are still rather pricey. I haven't looked into 2.5 Gigabit switches. Maybe I should.

The most I can get on large sustained backups or transfers is about 100 MB/Sec or so (+/-) which is consistent with the limitations of a 1-Gigabit network.

Music playback with the current NAS setup has no noticeable I/O latency or bandwidth issues. It's never been an issue and it is certainly not bound by HDD IOPs. Music playback doesn't require much.
