localzuk Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) I received my QNAP Turbo NAS TS-859 Pro+ recently, and have now got it set up with 8x WDC WD2002FAEX-007BA05.0 2TB HDDs (Caviar Black model). I've run some benchmarks using HD Tune Pro, and the results are as below. Could someone tell me if they're good/bad etc...? As I have nothing to compare them to! Edited May 24, 2011 by localzuk
localzuk Posted May 25, 2011 Author Posted May 25, 2011 No-one any ideas as whether this is good or not?
Willott Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Not sure to be honest, I have one of the same (though with green disks), and only thing I can suggest is not sticking encryption on the disks, kcryptd doesn't seem to run multicored/threaded so it causes a significant bottleneck and sustained transfer rates of ~10MBs. Is Data Encryption Worth Destroying Your NAS' Performance? : Atom D510 And Encryption is quite an interesting read on the subject.
plexer Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 How does it compare to the specs given for the drives? Ben
