QNAP TVS-872N 8-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 customize 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 manufacturers 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.

The fastest MB/s figure we got out of the TVS-872N was 593MB/s for reads, with the drives configured in a RAID 6 array and using a 5GbE connection. QNAP quote a Sequential read figure of 590MB/s using the 5GbE connection so that test figure can confirm that. The official Sequential write figure using 5GbE is 589MB/s, again we could confirm that with testing as the fastest write speed we saw was 587MB/s with the disks in a RAID 0 array.  Using a 1GbE connection the unit was a model of consistency across all the tested RAID levels.
