Performace Tests Remarks
My FreeNAS Read speed is moderate, if you know of ways to improve it, drop me a message.
I have attempted to finetune FreeNAS settings but the performance differences are very marginal.
Settings attempted:

• Compression
• atime
• autotune
• HDD Power management
• Force 4K sectors
