Upgraded the connection between the x299 and x399 rigs.

 

10GbE is very impressive.  While it sucks that it still bottlenecks the NVMe RAIDs, it's still a hell of a lot faster when moving large files between the rigs compared to the old 120 MB/s gigabit.

    Would you consider running multiple 10 Gb connections combined together?  With ~4 you should be able to transfer 1 SSD's worth of speed without limitations, so how many would it take for your RAID setup?

    @Ryan_Vickers  I really didn't think about it. 

     

    I run a link aggregation between my NAS and router (2 x 1gb) to help increase the available bandwidth to the entire network, but link aggregation, while a bonded connection, does not actually increase the max throughput to a single PC. It simply allows 2 to receive 1gb worth of throughput simultaneously.

     

    Can what you are suggesting be combined in a way to allow for a larger single throughput?  If so, I'd really be interested in that.

    It was my understanding that you could bond multiple connections between two PCs as well given enough ports.  I think LTT even did a video on it
