In this instance we do not have AV on either of the servers. I have not intentionally implemented any throttling on any of the switches or network cards. Still testing and I will let you know what we find. I will say that it appears that one should not expect to just divide file size by "gigabit speed" and expect a file to transfer that fast which is what set my manager off yesterday when has was copying a 40 gig database backup.
Networking can be a funny thing. Coping to rather than from when working with 2 PCs can provide different results. That's very true. Depends on so many things. Thanks for the ideas everyone. Keep in mind this was recommended as a troubleshooting tool, not a replacement for daily function. The graph in the SMB1 case that you refer to in the article shows a constant flat line for most of the copy.
I would theorize that the initial burst is filling up the disk cache on the storage subsystem. But, a 40GB transfer would fill up any cache, and after that, its going straight through to the disk subsystem, which might be pretty slow.
To continue this discussion, please ask a new question. Which of the following retains the information it's storing when the system power is turned off? Submit ». Get answers from your peers along with millions of IT pros who visit Spiceworks.

Installing the Driver Software When the Windows Server system first boots up after installing a new hardware device, such as a Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, the system automatically detects the new hardware and prompts you to install the driver software for that device.
See Installing the Hardware for details. These drivers may need to be extracted to a temporary directory on your hard drive. To install the adapter software for Windows Server , do the following. When you boot up the Windows Server system after installing the network device, a series of Found New Hardware windows display. The Welcome to the Found New Hardware window then displays. The following window appears notifying you to wait while the wizard installs the software.
You must then perform a scan for hardware changes in the device manager, followed by re-installing the Broadcom device with the current adapter software as described in the " Installing the Driver Software " section. Prior to uninstalling the Broadcom device, ensure to capture all Advanced Property settings because the parameters will be lost. To update the adapter software for Windows Server , do the following:. The Hardware Update Wizard searches for the appropriate driver and automatically updates the software.
Once installation of the driver software is complete, you are ready to modify configuration parameters. Back to Top. Although the default values should be appropriate in most cases, you may change any of the available options to meet the requirements of your specific system. Once the adapter driver software has been installed, you can use this procedure to verify or change the following adapter properties: Click Start then select Control Panel from the pop-up menu.
Double-click the System icon. Click the Hardware tab and then click Device Manager. The Device Manager window displays. Scroll down the list of hardware devices to Network Adapters. Double-click the Gigabit Ethernet Adapter you want to configure. The Gigabit Ethernet Properties window displays, showing the General tab. The It is responsible for the QOS provisions on the local segment, and the avoidance of the "all packets are treated equally" issue, which falls onto the hub or switch servicing segment.
Thus, when the local segment becomes congested and the hub or switch workload results in the delay dropping of packets, those packets with flags that correspond to higher priorities will receive perferential treatment, and will be serviced before packets with lower priorities.
Disabled by default, select Enable from the Value drop-down menu to enable this parameter. Once enabled, select Disable from the Advanced tab Value drop-down menu to disable this parameter.
Normally the Checksum Offload function is computed by the protocol stack. By selecting one of the Checksum Offload parameters, the checksum can be computed by the Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. To enable one of the Checksum Offload parameters, select the parameter from the Advanced tab Value drop-down menu. These parameters are described and shown below:. T he Ethernet WireSpeed parameter enables a BASE-T Ethernet adapter to establish a link at a lower speed when only 2 pairs of wires are available in the cable plant.
By default, the adapter is set to Enable. PAUSE frames enable the adapter and the switch to control the transmit rate. Enabled by default, to disable Flow Control to receive, transmit, or receive and transmit PAUSE frames, select the appropriate parameter from the Advanced tab Value drop-down menu described and shown below.
The Jumbo Mtu parameter allows the adapter to transmit and receive oversized Ethernet frames that are greater than but less than bytes in length.
