Ok.
You might also look for any power management settings, and see that they are all set to maximum performance during the test. That includes power management for both the card and the PC.
Also make sure antivirus and internet security software is turned off during the test.
The read performance in the > 70 MB/s range is for large sequential file access. That's all NAStester (http://www.808.dk/?code-csharp-nas-performance) measures. If you are testing small files or directory reads, performance will be much slower.
Also, if the test program is copying to a local PC drive, then the local drive can also limit performance. NAStester doesn't do that.
You can take the router out of the equation by doing a direct connect test (outlined here: http://www.readynas.com/kb/faq/boot/how ... _pc_or_mac).
