Slow Copy from Drive A to Drive B

Using Vista and the tester from one of the users on this forum, network speeds are good. 15MB write & 20MB read. Using Vista to initiate file copy from Drive A to B also show good speed. Using backup software, it's even faster. Until now that is. Transferring less than 5 Gigs, it's fast but during a recent "mirroring" where we use the backup software to copy files from Drive A to Drive B, it is taking much too long for 40 Gigs of data transfer. Speeds have been declining and Vista shows less than 1 mbps now (more like 400kbps). Any ideas on how to resolve this isue?

Re: Slow Copy from Drive A to Drive B

Don't use the network to copy from A to B.  Do it via telnet nativly on the DNS.


DNS-323     F/W: 1.04b84  H/W: A1  ffp: 0.5  Drives: 2X 400 GB Seagate SATA-300
DNS-323     F/W: 1.05b28  H/W: B1  ffp: 0.5  Drives: 2X 1 TB  WD SATA-300

Re: Slow Copy from Drive A to Drive B

At this moment, I don't have the knowledge to do this. Is there a quick tutorial? We have been using Xp to run teh backup software over the network and speeds have been acceptable. Must be Vista that is causing extended transfers to slow to a crawl. Any more ideas?

Re: Slow Copy from Drive A to Drive B

False alarm! Rebooted the DNS and speeds skyrocketed once again. Maybe the large backup schema choked it for some reason.
