Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.3.

While the 12big's Sequential performance (particularly reads) is very impressive, its RAID controller doesn't seem to deal with the small bity files of everyday use (especially when it comes to writes) anywhere nearly as well. In some ways this isn't a surprise as the 12big is all about dealing with very, very large files, and not small bity ones.
