QNAP TS879-Pro 8-Bay NAS Review
Chris Hadley / 12 years ago
For content creation, Intel have simulated access to via video creation applications. This is made up of 98 files with 12MB reads and 14MB writes in varying sizes of blocks. The activity is predominantly non-sequential with the majority of access time made up of writing to the drives. There are quiet periods of read/write activity interrupted with busy periods to present a difficult workload on the drives.
Content creation is another area that shows how well the SATA controller can handle the workload and manage the drives when pounded with varying sizes of blocks and the 879Pro handles this test with ease, comfortably sitting over 10MB/s in all the key arrays.
