Benchmarks: NASPT Continued
The NAS Performance Toolkit simulates various workloads to measure single-user performance. Office Productivity is a read and write test involving hundreds of small files, File Copy from NAS is a read test that uses a single 4.3GB transfer, while Directory Copy to NAS transfers a folder of 2,833 files using mostly 64KB writes.
Once again, the DL4100 and EX4100 are closely matched. Out-the-box performance is similar, but the former does have the advantage of expandable memory and should in theory cope better with the demands of multiple clients.
