Hi everyone,
I recently set up my first proxmox server and am trying to get better smb speeds to my windows 10 machine. Both have 3 1gbit intel nics and are connected via a managed switch.
There are two options afaik to increase singel smb connection speed: a network trunk or smb multichannel
I enable multichannel in smb.conf but i am not seeing any performance benefits. The disk performance should be good under freenas i got well over 200mb/s.
Network settings
smb.conf
