Extremely slow backup to a network share
Hi!
I'm backing up partitions from a laptop to a Win2008 R2 share.
The laptop is superfast with a SSD disk. The backup is running on highest priority. When running the backup is processor usage is typically 5%, and the usage of the 1GB network card is 3-6% the looking at it in Windows task manager.
So it's not the processing or network speed that is slowing the backup down.
The speed when using ATI is about 5MB/sec, and copying a file to the network drive is about 50 MB/sec
A AIT chunk of about 4GB takes 20 minutes!!
Why is the backup soooooo slow ?

I see normal speed on local disk, and also when copying files.
There is almost no setting available on the network card, Intel(R) 82579LM Gigabit.
Dont use wireless.
What I dont userstand is why ATI have problems when the general network doesnt.
In order to use FTP I need to set up a FTP server ?

Three days for a system backup u[to back up 275 gb from a hp dv6 to a network drive on a desktop using Ethernet cable.
This seems like to long. default setting on everything.
Acronis 2011 latest Rev.
Acronis True Image backs up 80 gb from an older laptop in about 2 hours
to the same destination drive using the same setup.
So I would expect something like 9 to 10 hours from Acronis 2011 if it could do the same speed.
