Does anyone have a solution to a sudden increased slowdown of SoftRaid Disks after massive copying?

Restart doesnt help. All disks are green and good. Im getting a readout of WRITE: 113 AND READ 289. it used to 4 times that I think.

Thank to anyone who knows a solution

There is no reason for this. attach a SoftRAID Tech supprort file and we can look.

 

Did you check if indexing is causing this? that seems most likely

Run the activity Montor.app. Sort by CPU. See if kernel task, MDS, Mdworker, or what may be using lots of resources.

Nothing obvious here.

These are internal drives, so they are not prone to such issues like slowdowns. Maybe try Activity Monitor again and "verify disk" one at a time. Are any of the disks behaving overly slow? (cancel the verify through the utilities menu)
