Troubleshooting • Re: Aria2 on Pi 4 looks capped at 12m/s

What OS?

What model of USB device?

What other things have you got connected?

Are you downloading over ethernet or Wifi?

You need to work out where the data is actually being written. If you know the file name; search for it. I don't know aria, but it will almost certainly have a default for write location. It wouldn't surprise me if that is the Download directory in your HOME directory...In which case, you'll need to change it.

Here's a couple of links that you might find interesting

Thanks for replying!

OS: Raspberry Pi OS
USB device: Hard disk box using a 3.5 HDD (using dd command in RPi, get speed like 60MS/s)
Other thing connected: no
Connection type: ethernet (using speedtest-cli l and get ~300mbps internet speed)

So I configured aria2 to write file into my USB hard disk as my default download folder, but it still gets only 12m/s speed or 100mbps speed, not sure what would be the bottleneck, also check cpu usage, only 20%
Have you looked at the sticky on USB disk speeds?

There are issues with various USB block devices on the 400. You could be hitting one of those issues. I think that it's mostly SSD drives that are troublesome...bit IIRC, the problem was actually down to the USB/SATA interface rather than the drive itself; so it's possible that it could also affect legacy spinning rust type drives.

How are the drives formatted? You aren't using NTFS are you?

Some folks have reported that disabling the wifi can help the ethernet speed...which makes sense because they share the same hardware....and if the wifi is also busy...that could have an impact

adding dtoverlay=disable-wifi to /boot/firmware/config.txt then rebooting should do it.

Or if you are using NetworkManager, you can do it from the GUI.

There are quite a few threads about poor network speeds on the Pi4....here's one.
