After you create a volumes for each drive you simply need to create a shared folder on each drive. Then you map to the shared folder.
Hope that helps.

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Hmm, well it could be your file sizes. Try zipping your files into a single zip file to see if your speeds match mine. As you know smaller file sizes will dramatically change file transfer speeds.

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
I think we are not matching conditions so we are seeing different results. I am using a 10gbs network card across a 10gb network switch to the 10gbs port on the NAS. My Desktop drive is m.2 NVME 1.2GB/s so the PC is fully capable of saturating a 10gbs network and max out the NAS potential top speed....

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Ok here is what I discovered. I removed the raid 5 array and reinitialized the NAS with only the Western Digital 500GB WD Red SA500 SSD drive in. Here is the problem: The SSD drives (I tried both) do no function correctly in the NAS. For example: This image shows the speed of the WD red SSD when pla...

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
After re-reviewing the thread you linked, his solution was to replace the NAS with one of your competitors models. I mean, I could do that as well if there is no solution to the issue, but seems like that should not be the answer.

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Not sure what you want me to take away from this thread. I actually reviewed it looking for answers prior to posting this thread. It does not appear to come to a conclusion other than the Physical disks may have been faulty or relabeled damaged disks. They also experienced crashing, I have had no su...

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Here is an example of the real world transfer speeds moving 7GB in files to an M.2 Nvme desktop drive from the NAS and then back. Higher speeds are with out Cache.
Additionally here is the before and after Plex user directory.

Re: F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Hi! After adding SSD cache, it is possible to slow down the copy speed. Because the data is directly copied to the hard disk without the SSD cache; if the SSD cache is added, the data is written to the SSD first, and then to the hard disk. Using SSD cache to improve speed is mainly for files that a...

F5 422 nas is slower ssd cache on.
Not really sure whats going on. I just got this NAS a few days ago. The nas is connected to a 10GbE network to a 10GbE pc. I am using 4 x 4tb seagate enterprise drives. I originally had then in raid 5. I added a ssd in slot 5 as a cache. The transfer speeds up and down seemed to slow. No faster than...
