How to maximise data transfer speeds over the 1Gbit LAN speed at home

#2
The limiting factor here is probably the network card and network protocol you use for data transfers.
The card itself would be limited to around 120MB/s in ideal circumstances.
Technically transferring a single file such as 2GB ISO file or video file should achieve the best results.
When you try to transfer multiple text files, this will result in slow speeds. Simply because of the way the data is transferred over the network.
You will achieve different speeds based on the protocol you select. There is NFS, SMB, NFS and even ISCI option to connect and transfer your data. Speeds will be very different in each setup. You can see some test results here https://nascompares.com/answer/afp-vs-sm...-protocol/
Also, have a look at JUMBO frame packet size setting. This should be the same between a NAS and a computer. This video will explain it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFxjYeCcxyc

I hope this helps. And thank you for your support. This keeps us going.

You can replicate Qnap testing setup to achieve similar result https://www.qnap.com/en-uk/performance/model/tvs-672xt
