Asustor Flashstor 6 Gen 2 (FS6806X) NAS Review

We tested the peak power consumption of a NAS at the wall during a run of CrystalDiskMark 8.0.4 as this version of the benchmark runs the read and write benchmark suites separately so its easier to monitor what power the device is using during each function.

Asustor quotes power consumption figures for the Flashstor 6 Gen2 of 17.9W (Operation) and 1.2W (Sleeping). With the mix of disks we used, we saw an average of 27.2W for active reads, 32.8W for active writes and 13.1W idle.
