I swapped out the whole system, not just a drive, because I didn’t know if it was specifically a drive issue.
I have the old system on my desk here and I ran some tests on it. Both the unit in production and the unit on my desk have Identical hardware: Model 101S-6 Supermicro SYS-E200-9B. 4 Core Intel Pentium N3700 1.6 Ghz, 8GB ram, 120 GB m.2 sata ssd, 4x Intel Ethernet Controller i210 Gigabit Netework connection (rev03).
On the production machine:
[root@ipfire log]# hdparm -tT /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 3092 MB in 1.99 seconds = 1552.27 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 1174 MB in 3.00 seconds = 391.22 MB/sec
[root@ipfire log]#
On the machine on my desk with no users connected:
[root@ipfire log]# hdparm -tT /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 2236 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1117.89 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 230 MB in 3.01 seconds = 76.5 MB/sec
[root@ipfire log]#
That is quite a performance difference.
