I love it when a plan comes together!

Ah, now I have a request: Can you do this on your Raspi:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install wget
cd
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sanderjo/disk-speed/master/diskspeed.py
and then

Code: Select all

python diskspeed.py /tmp
And post the output? It should be something like:

Code: Select all

Let's go
filename /tmp/outputTESTING.txt
Disk writing speed: 161.38191436 Mbytes per second
Done
If you get something like the above, do this:

Code: Select all

python diskspeed.py /media/MBL
and post the output here. It should give the speed of your local flash and your NAS-over-ethernet...

Used to love the A team.......

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ python diskspeed.py /tmp
Let's go

Disk writing speed: 3.62720343772 Mbytes per second

pi@raspberrypi ~ $

Then,

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ python diskspeed.py /media/MBL
Let's go
filename /media/MBL/outputTESTING.txt
Disk writing speed: Error writing
EERRRROOROROR ... bailing out

pi@raspberrypi ~ $


Oops, that don't look right.

First part looks good! Your flash card speed is 3.6 MB/s (which by itself is not much)

Second part not good ... my fault: do this:

Code: Select all

sudo python diskspeed.py /media/MBL
and post the result

Cooolll! You just tested my writing disk speed measurer.

Summary:
The writing speed to your flash card is 3.6 MB/s
The writing speed to your NAS is 2.2 MB/s

Thanks for testing.
