USB 3.0 Performance:

While the wireless connectivity is the main feature of the Gauntlet Node, it also includes a USB 3.0 connection which is helpful when loading files to the Node. One thing to remember is that when the Node is connected via USB 3.0, the wireless capability is disabled.

To test the USB 3.0 performance it was connected to an ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ motherboard, coupled with an AMD 1090T processor and 16GB of Kingston Hyper-X DDR3 memory.

CrystalDiskMark 3.0.1 x64:

CrystalDiskMark presents data transfer test data in an easy to read and understand format, with units of Measure in MB/s. The program was configured to run the benchmark five times with 1,000MB test files, and the average results are shown below.

In the Sequential Read test the Gauntlet Node performed rather well, exceeding the other USB 3.0 devices by a slim margin, and falling just short of a drive on a direct SATA connection.



For the Sequential Write test, the Gauntlet Node put up a better speed than all other tested drives.



A slightly lower score was received for the 512K Read test, here the Lacie USB 3.0 and direct SATA connection drives performed slightly better.



Once again, the Gauntlet Node performed better than the other USB 3.0 devices, but slightly lower than the direct SATA connection.



While these scores are interesting, one thing to keep in mind is that these scores will be more about the drive installed in the Gauntlet Node, and results will vary by drive.
