I have a 1.0TB TeraStation HD-H1.0TGL/R5 that has become so slow, as to be nearly unusable. Clicking on a folder takes 20-30 seconds to open. My Outlook e-mails take 15-20 seconds to load and close. I keep our Outlook pst files on the TStation. Here are the configs:
1.0TB TeraStation HD-H1.0TGL/R5
Firmware: 2.16
226.1GB Used (33.9%)
RAID 5
All shared folders are mapped using the ip address
Gigabit Network
NTP Server, AppleTalk, FTP Server: all Disabled
Ethernet Frame Size: 4,100 bytes. (Recently changed from 1518 bytes to try and solve slowness. Neither helped)
Workgroup
Shares: 3 (all mapped to ip address)
Print Servers: All disabled.
USB ports: nothing connected
Disk backup: no jobs configured or running
PCast: never used
Mail notification: Enabled, one recipient, works correctly.

This TStation is a home network NAS accesed by 2 users. The computers accessing the TStation are gigabit wired running Windows XP Pro SP3. The TStation has become increasingly slower and slower in response time accesing files. Any help to solving this problem would be GREATLY appreciated!
