Well errata entry ERR004512 of http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/errata/IMX6DQCE.pdf?fpsp=1&WT_TYPE=Errata&WT_VENDOR=FREESCALE&WT_FILE_FORMAT=pdf&WT_ASSET=Documentation seems to say that's the limit for ethernet throughput on the imx6 and it isn't going to change. Doesn't say why that is the limit. -- Len Sorensen

One personal experience that may be relevant: I ordered a Cubox-i4x4 from NewEgg a few months ago. When it arrived it was clearly marked as a 4x4, and in the original shrink-wrap, But it only had 2GB of RAM. I notified NewEgg and they tested one of the other one's of that batch they had in stock. Surprise! It also had only 2GB RAM... They gave me a rebate of the difference in price between the i4-Pro and the 4x4 and we considered the matter closed. But it might be worth checking, anyway. Also, as for the (lack of) difference between USB2 and USB3 disks, the Cubox boards all have Gbit Ethernet ports, but they are limited to 480Mbit actual throughput rate. I assume this is because the SoC handles everything thru a USB2 driver circuit, though I'm not privy to any actual design information. You may be seeing a similar thing here. Just my two cents. Rick
Re: Debian Jessie on QNAP TS-112P - Reboot instead of shutdown
Hello, I get the same issue since I upgraded my Qnap TS-119P II | Turbo to Jessie. I'm not able to shutdown my Qnap anymore, it always reboot whatever command I use (halt, shutdown, systemctl). Is there a way to fix that, without going to a fresh install?
