I have a Dell Poweredge R710 raid 5 (5 disk array) with the PERC H700 raid card. For some reason, I am overloading my drives while doing NZB data transfers. This never used to happen and just started happening where it would spin up and hit around 13 MB/s and then pause with this message:
The thing is, each drive should be able to read and write at roughly 100-150 MB/s and the raid 5 performance should be at least marginally better than even that. This thing is crapping out at barely 10%.
This array is 20 TB (5 disks that are 4 TB each) with about 14.5 TB usable space. I ran dell command update and updated everything available and same with windows updates.
I had a few VMs running but I shut those down and rebooted the server and nothing changed. So off a fresh boot, basically nothing running, it still craps out at 13 MB/s.
I did do a disk replacement a little while ago (like 2 months maybe?) and overall performance has seemed to drop. Perhaps the array is misconfigured but everything looks good to me.
Any ideas?
