Other than having additional storage space the SSD is a lot faster than eMMC and has a much higher write life. For some packages that store a lot of logs or cached data locally you would want that. If you haven't seen an issue on the 3100 and plan to use the same config on the 6100 you will likely be fine with the eMMC. Steve

@wingrait said in Network Drive Slow Performance?: 10Mbps = 1.25MB/s with no other overhead. hahaha - well problem solved ;) Glad you got it figured out.. Bytes vs bits is hard sometimes hahahah <ROFL> edit: btw thanks for pointing out the actual issue, vs just walking away leaving the thread hanging to keep egg off your face.. The B vs b thing bites everyone in the butt at some point, reminds me of still the constant question about wireless, but the router says it can do 1900mbps on the box - why am I only see 200 ;) hehehe

pfSense is also an enterprise-capable firewall. I don't think you'd want to bet your real business on a Linksys or Asus from Walmart. Looking at it this way, you are getting enterprise-level performance and security for your home net at no required expense except what it takes to learn to manage it. Of course, being open source, you can always get creative and roll your own: https://github.com/pfsense/
