Asustor Drivestor 4 (AS1104T) 4-bay NAS Review

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems' performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customise your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously.

Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturer's RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.

Asustor rates the Sequential (SMB 512KB) read/write performance of the Drivestor 4 as 214MB/s and 266MB/s respectively. These figures were obtained from a Drivestor 4 loaded with four Seagate IronWolf 110 SSDs built into a RAID 5 array. We used 6TB WD Reds to test the NAS and the best figures we got with the ATTO benchmark for a RAID 5 array were 205MB/s for reads and 138MB/s for writes. The fastest speeds we saw were 225MB/s for reads and 272MB/s for writes when the drives were tested in a RAID 0 array.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
