Hi,
my dockstar is with debian squeeze samba and vsftpd. I have attached a 4 gb kingston usb stick for debian and an 1 TB samsung usb hdd for samba shares and ftp. The 1 tb hdd is ext2 formatted. Write speeds over samba and ftp are ok (about 20 mbyte/s) but read speeds are low. I only get 6-7 mbyte/s read speeds.
I tested with dd and got the following reseults:
root@dockstar:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/HD103SI/1gb.file bs=1024k count=1024
1024+0 Datensätze ein
1024+0 Datensätze aus
1073741824 Bytes (1,1 GB) kopiert, 35,6438 s, 30,1 MB/s
root@dockstar:~# dd if=/media/HD103SI/1gb.file of=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=1024

How can i test network speed???
Thanks
