QNAP TS-869U-RP 8-Bay Rackmount NAS Review
Chris Hadley / 12 years ago
In the directory copy to NAS test, a directory tree representing that of a typical commercially available office suite is copied to the NAS to trace the bulk copy of a complex directory. A total of 2833 files making up 247MB are moved but the file sizes vary considerably with an average size of 41.4kB. Due to the varying sizes of the files, only around 50% of the writes are sequential.
The increased number of drives here helps the RAID0 array with the larger number of small writes that are made to the file system with speeds just under 25MB/s.
