HD Video playback is a read test, where a single 2Gb file is read in 256kB blocks sequentially from the drive. This simulates where a 720p HD video is being watched across the network to a media player on the other end.
When looking at single stream playback, the double parity array does take a hit in performance over all the other configurations available, only able to push through 62.4MB/s whilst the remainder sat around the 90MB/s mark.
