I setup most of the QNAPs and Synology systems with SMB, as I did with the Apple servers. How many drives in your Synology ? Are you assigning static IP addresses from your computer to your Synology ?

If you are not getting this speed when you mount your Synology on your computer, then something is configured incorrectly. When you work on a LOCAL NETWORK (which means that you are connecting via SMB), even on a crappy system, you always should get 100 MB/sec (Which is the typical 1G speed). And if by some miracle you are actually getting 100 MB/sec over the internet (I have never seen that in my entire life) - this is 800 Mb/sec. If you are working remotely to the Synology over the internet, and using OpenVPN with Filezilla, and you are getting 100 Mb/sec - this is 12.5 MB/sec. So I need more details about exactly what is going on, to understand your problem, and answer you correctly.

And your speeds are not 50 MB/sec or 100 MB/sec - they would be in Mb/sec, because the internet cannot work at those very fast speeds. When you use Filezilla, you are working over the internet, not a local network. When you connect - you connect with SMB - and you type in smb://YourIPAddressOfTheNAS When you use a 1G connection from your computer to the Synology on a local network using a 1G switch, you get about 100 MB/sec. A DS1819+, a DS1621xs+, a DS1821+, a Rack Station ? When you use a Synology like this, you connect via 10G ethernet, and you will get about 700 - 900 MB/sec. I don't know if you are using 1G or 10G connections in your local network, or if you are even using a local network.įirst, you have not stated what Synology you are using. It is confusing to answer your question, as you have not stated anything about your system, and how you are connecting.
