Towards the end of the scrub, speeds are up in the 250+ MB/s range. It's on very slow disk (8x WD Green), so the seek penalty is high. I suspect this is because data and metadata has been scattered across the disk due to churn from snapshots, etc. I've never noticed a slowdown in regular use though, in fact local disk on my clients tends to be the bottleneck when copying files. -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com
