Testing (continued):

Real World File Transfers - Large Files:

Large file transfer rates were the second area of interest in this part of testing. Disk images, HD video files, and large multimedia projects would fit in to this grouping. The large file transfer test involved moving a single 5.96GB (6103MB) MPG video file around the network to the storage servers. A reboot of the Windows desktop system was executed between each test, and different folders were used for reading and writing.

When reading the large file from the DS1515, we see a transfer rate of almost 111MB/s, which gives it a close second place finish to the DS415+ at almost 114MB/s.



Writing these files to the DS1515 was equally impressive, and again it finishes in second place with a transfer rate of about 111MB/s.
