smr drives are not for a nas. the overlapping tracks really get annoying when fragmentation starts. you then get max 9mbyte/sec sequential write speed.
they were available for a couple of weeks in austria and germany, but sales have been stopped suddenl.
no it is not. take a look at the freenas forum and the benchmarks. anyway, I will not waste my time on noobs, who are not willing to learn. creating a lab enviroment and beeing to stupid to RTFM seems to be mandatory in this forum, bye.
because you test the wrong way. do your homework, learn about benchmarking. understand nfs take a look at the mount options, learn about sync... und sei nicht so ein fauler sack der statt zu recherchieren ziellos herumprobiert.
freenas default zfs setting is lz4 compression , )
anyway, zfs and benchmark is tricky. you may take a look at the vsphere community, there is a benchmark suite.
btw..disabling the zfs sync....wtf, you kill your data also without the box, if that is your primary goal
