I can’t remember the last time I posted on a community board. I can’t help at least reaching out to see if anyone else is experiencing what seems to be a deal-breaking speed issue. I purchased the 8TB My Book Live Duo.

Probably the slowest thing I’ve dealt with since dial-up. That’s not an exaggeration. Trying to get data onto this thing is a nightmare in terms of speed. Job copies that I perform are typically 10 to 25 GB (photographs). One job = an entire day. Accessing it from offsite? Forget it … 2kb transfer speeds, maybe. IN the office, I get 100KB if I’m lucky.

I’ve noticed that there’s a tremendous lag between files. This accounts for a TON of the speed issue.

Is this typical? It’s hooked up to a great router, and we have flaming fast transfer speeds with virtually anything else.

Any idea why there is NO other way to connect these drives? I thought that I could at least salvage the thing as an additional dual RAID, but … nope. Network only? Seems tragically short sighted.
