performance: Ultra 6 Plus v 316

In general, which would be faster for routine file access (no videa transcoding) - an Ultra 6 Plus or a 316?

(I already an Ultra 6 plus)

Does the 316 have enough horsepower to handle real time encryption and "unlimited" snapshots without significant performance loss?

    Maybe still the Ultra 6 Plus. The 316 has an Intel Atom CPU and could more be considered to be an improvement over the Ultra 6.

    I think if you want that you should consider the 516/716 which have much more powerful CPUs.
