Are they maybe small files over a wireless network? If so, what if you generated the I/O using: dd if=/dev/zero of=/Backups/zero.file Is this behaviour new, or did you change anything recently? (Did you really copy over all those GBs at 2MB/s?) I'm going to rule out underpowered system, since even an Atom should be able to do sha256 checksums and parity calculations faster than 2 MB/s. > twsadmin@darling:~/mdbackup$ zpool status > pool: Backups > state: ONLINE > scan: scrub repaired 0 in 12h56m with 0 errors on Sat Aug 18 20:56:44 2012 > config: > > NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM > Backups ONLINE 0 0 0 > raidz1-0 ONLINE 0 0 0 > c3t0d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 > c3t1d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 > c4t1d0 ONLINE 0 0 0 This looks fine. Reading 2TB in 13h is about 45 MB/s, so about the order of magnitude we'd expect.
