NAS Performance - 128 MB Comparison

Jim Buzbee
To put these results into perspective, the plots shown in Figures 17 and 18 include data taken with the same IOzone configuration from previous reviews of similar-class drives:
Maxtor Shared Storage Drive LaCie Ethernet Disk mini Synology DS-101 Disk Station Iomega StorCenterTo minimize the operating system caching effect, the comparison was done with a 128 MByte file, so it more accurately reflects the real performance of the NAS itself. As you can see, the G600 falls in the center of the pack; the Gigabit run only shows a little performance boost, and as expected, the wireless transfers are far slower than wired ones.
