I'm not an expert on this, but here is what I would try:
1. Are you using the latest virtio drivers on your Windows guest(s)?

2. Is there any particular reason you use CentOS 6.4 on your storage server?
I would update it to CentOS 6.5 so you would have matching Linux
kernels on both of your systems.
