I was a bit disappointed in the performance as I was only able to get around 550 Mbps (this was using the Intel NIC). I fired up "FreeFileSync" on the 2012 R2 system and started started the process of copying files over to the FreeNAS System. It's a 13 year old system (floppy drive included) that has been falling apart piece by piece over the years. I mapped the share on my Windows 10 desktop successfully, and mapped it on my existing Windows Server 2012 R2 system which acts as my File Server (no redundancy, no backups) and Plex Server. I setup my drive pool, dataset, groups, users, shares, permissions, etc. I performed a clean install of FreeNAS 11.3 U3.1 and selected the two SSD's for my "boot pool". My first adventure started close to noon today. NIC Card: Intel PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter Storage Drives: 8x 12Gb/s 8TB SAS HGST Ultrastar Helium He8 (HUH728080AL4200) First, the system:Ĭontroller: LSI 9211-8i (Bought it new in IT Mode, but switched to IR Mode when I updated the firmware) I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of shaking heads and facepalms, but thought I'd share my little "adventure" with setting up a file server today.
