Chris Hadley / 11 years ago
Test Procedure
Test system:
- Asus Maximus V Formula
- Intel Core i7 3770k
- Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz 16GB (2GB RAM for NASPT Testing)
- AMD Radeon HD 7970
- Corsair H100i
- Corsair HX1050W
- Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD
- Asus V247
- 4x Western Digital Se 4TB
We would like to thank AOC, Corsair, Kingston and Lian Li for supplying us with our test system components.
Many different software applications are also used to gain the broadest spectrum of results, which allows for the fairest testing possible.
Software used:
- Intel NASPT
- ATTO
- CrystalDiskMark
- Anvil’s Storage Utilities RC6
With each RAID configuration setup, we run the above list of benchmark utilities to get a broad set of data to show how the system copes with varying data types. NASPT has one exception to the testing methodology as it requires no more than 2GB of memory to be installed into the test bench to prevent the software from data caching in the same way we would when running a full NAS test.
