:? the slowly transfer speed possible...(seeing that at work i transfer from my Workstation to my Server at real 80/87Mb/s, and from my WS to my Server there was many switch and switch, and 150 Meters distance.....i was thought that it was possible also at home with one crossover direct) but when i see that connecting crossover and 1000Mb/s was abilitate with 2 green leds and the speed was 27Mb/s i was :shocked : please, not possible :please goo more fast :please

but no problem.

Here are some speed measurements of the 5Big2. 26MB/sec up, and 62MB/sec down. I think you can expect a bit higher, as the tests are done on Lacie firmware, with software raid, while you are not using any raid.
BTW when using NFS or FTP instead of Samba (the default Windows filesharing) you can squeeze some more bytes. I suppose fvdw can tell if either of them is supported.

i've tryed with Windows Normal methdo, and then with Fast Copy (http://news.softpedia.com/newsImage/FastCopy-Review-2.png/) a third part software that i don't like so much.

but I always used Windows classic copy method in my daily operations. (i have Windows 8 Pro 64bit) and it have a beauty copy/past interface with graphic progress, instead Win7/vista/Xp (http://www.eightforums.com/attachments/f1/f11/14892d1358230871-refresh-reset-windows-8-without-installation-disk-copy-install-wim.png)

yes. the copyes data is the same exactly gigabits :) the nas is ready.

[fvdw]

attached the new database for you 5big2

Unzip the archive and put the file in the shared folder "public"
Be sure the webinterface of the fvdw-sl firmware is not active
Access the nas with putty and enter on the Linux command line

Code: Select all

cp /share/1000/public/nas_conf_db.xml /rw_fs/etc/nas_conf_db.xml

After that open the web interface and see if you can see all disks
