I had been using drivepool fine on my previous build which was an intel based machine. Its read/write speeds to all the drives in my storage box were acceptable for being usb3.0. However I recently did a new build, amd this time. The pool got recognized correctly and works on the new build, however write speeds are much lower, and also lower than another external drive I have as just a backup drive (this one is usb3.0 and a 5400rpm drive as well where my storage box is all 7200rpm drives).
On this new build the pool will read at the usual full speed ~150mb/s, however write speeds hover around 48-50mb/s, much lower than the almost symmetrical I get on my other drive that is not part of the pool. I have gone through and set the performance mode, disabling quick removal, and enable write caching as well on all the drives in the pool
Just seeing if anyone else has seen this? Any ideas as to what might be happening? Ive probed it with various usb utils and it appears that my storage box itself is running at usb3.0 fine, its just these low write speeds I cant account for
