I recently acquired a Raspberry Pi 4 B with 8GB of RAM. In a test benchmark setup I was able to saturate the gigabit wired link with a file transfer between a Windows 10 client and the Raspberry Pi.
READ 970mbps 113 MB/S user-data read after CIFS/SMB/TCP overhead WRITE 972mbps 113 M/S user-data write after CIFS/SMB/TCP overhead I am using a 64GB microSD card (class U1) for the OS install, but not the NAS storage. I also installed 5 heatsinks on the Pi and used a case with a small 5V fan. Connection is via a gigabit switch between the client and the Pi. I have the latest Raspberry Pi OS lite 64-bit. My testing used a ramdisk so the microSD card was not a bottleneck. Commands used for the setup:mkdir /mnt/ramdisk/ chmod 1777 /mnt/ramdisk/ mount -t tmpfs -o size=1g tmpfs /mnt/ramdisk/ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/ramdisk/random.data bs=10M count=100 status=progress apt-get install -y samba samba-common-bin apt-get install -y vim smbpasswd -a pi vim /etc/samba/smb.conf systemctl restart smbd smb.conf[share] Comment = Pi shared folder Path = /mnt/ramdisk Browseable = yes Writeable = Yes only guest = no create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Public = yes Guest ok = yes |
