Photo Album
When a photo album is viewed on-screen, the NAS only loads the images that you see on the screen from the drive. So, when you scroll through the album, new images have to be fetched and read all the time. The test album contains 169 photos with varying file sizes based on the dimensions, quality, and detail in the image. Reading the photos in an album puts an unusual read load upon the drive as the metadata is read, a thumbnail constructed, and finally the image viewed.
