DSM-G600, DNS-3xx and NSA-220 Hack Forum

Hi, first post here. Just bought a DNS-313, and so far, I'm mostly happy with it. However, there is this little thing that has been bugging me.

On average, I get writing speeds of around 7 MB/s when sending files to the 313; something I find a bit slow given it is supposed to be gigabit ethernet-enabled. I'm using a Belkin N1 Vision Router with built-in Gigabit ethernet ports, a Gigabit NIC on my PC, and said 313 with firmware 1.03. All cables between PC and 313 are Cat6. Is this normal?

Anyway, I just read something about Jumbo Frames. If I have understood it correctly, using said frames could give a transfer speed boost to the 313. Problem is, can it be done? How would I enable them in my home network?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Raingna!

DNS-313 does not have Jumbo Frame feature. DNS-321, 323 and 343 have this feature and it's easily enabled in web interface: SETUP tab>LAN setup.

Thanks for the info. Guess I'll use USB for massive data backup then...

Well, any SOHO NAS would not be fast enough for it

You could try setting the MTU between 1500 and 2048. In the source code of the driver I found that the MTU is first checked for 64 <= MTU <= 2048. If this is true the MTU is set and another check is done for MTU <=1500. If this is true it will continue else it will give a error message and exit the function. But maybe the setting of the MTU sticks.
