Slow File Transfer Speed


i have 2012 mac mini use media server, have couchpotato installed can let run in background doing needs do.

part of progress, cp setup move complete file (once downloaded) nas (neater mybook live 2tb), connected same lan (both mac mini , mbl connected via gig ethernet).

when first started use mac mini, using original 500gb hdd , when observed file being moved cp (using istat menu), see transfer speeds around 2-3mbps , take ages move across, speed in fact slower actual download speed.

have late 2013, mbp retina , using same program , process, file transfer @ around 40-50mbps (this on wifi connection), same router , nas.

planning upgrade mac mini ssd, have done, yet same slow speeds remain.

not sure can causing thought might have been down original hdd in mini.

know other hardware capable have seen greater speeds mentioned above on mbp.

ideas causing this?

thanks
adam
