<p>Are you booting off a flash drive instance of TruNAS (recommended
setup afaik)? If so, is it USB 3 on both ends?</p>
<p>Other than that, just make sure the drives are 7200rpm and latest
SATA spec should be fine. I don't use TruNAS itself, but use zfs
pools on two physical hosts, which is what TruNAS is using "under
the hood"</p>
<p>So, I would check your boot media to begin with, then check which
SATA implementation you have 1.5, 3, or 6 ... Mbps, and rpms of
hard drive.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>

Does anyone know the best hardware or software setup for TruNAS?
I setup trunas a few months ago, and really like it. minus really
poor performance. Which might be my hardware. The internet has
just confused me more. Searching and reading speeds of Sata,
SSD, and pcie is not straight. . . I am not sure where to even
look to make changes for the better.
