i have a storage server with 2 WD green power 1 TB drives. i store all of my music,movies on it, run BT on it.
when i watch normal divx movies (700 mbs) aka, dvdrips. i get slow playback occasionally. on multiple systems.
the server is plugged into the network via a dedicated NIC (netgear gigabit GA311), router is a DIR-655 Draft N, gigabit.
my main rig - plugged in via gigabit, suffers from laggy play back. if i transfer the file to local disk, its all fine. i use VLC
my laptop - dell d430 with a Pre-N wifi card, laggy play back.
before the laggy play back would only happen when i would copy files from 1 drive to the other.
but now it happens when i download from BT... wtf is going on?
i am thinking of running the 2 1 TB drives in raid 0 - i backup the most important stuff onto a external drive. dont really care about my movie collection, only my mp3s are backed up and pics and stuff like that...
any suggestions on what to do?
