I have been struggling with SMB performance and other protocols. With stock firmware you get +- 90MB/s (gigabit limit more or less) and about 30% cpu usage, pretty good for a cheap NAS. With Debian and OMV6 you get 40MB/s at most with the CPU maxed out. I tried to fine tuning SMB with all kind of parameteres, turning flow control off and so on, but couldn't pass 50MB/s with 90%CPU.

Thanks for your support bodhi. Didn't take in account this is a full Debian, was thinking on OS like Openwrt whose space requirements are more reduced. I just bought a small usb flash drive with good performance (Samsung FIT), planning to install rootfs on it. Original firmware lacks a lot of functionality nowadays... no VPN client/server, no Zerotier... only basic usage.by Pachis - Debian
No way to install debian on NAND?. Maybe the hdd would be an alternative, but I'm worried about it not being able to sleep and spin down. Any advice?.by Pachis - Debian
