Post your performance results
I thought it might be interesting to see what kind of performance everyone is getting with IO Meter so that we can compare what we're getting. So I thought we could all post our results in this thread...

As much as I'd like to want to believe the ReadyNAS is that fast, I think it might have to do more with caching on the PC side as you have 2GB of memory. If you use a larger test data size with IOMeter, you'll probably get a more consistent result.
That makes sense. I increased the maximum disk size to 4096000 and am now getting reads of 47 MBps and writes of 42 MBps pretty consistently.
I believe that's sector count, so you may even want to double that size.
I doubled it to 8192000 and am seeing writes at 53 - 55 and reads consistently at 47. I am using the iometer.icf file posted on the Iometer thread, just changing the target to my mapped drive and increasing the max disk size sectors.
I guess we'll need to confiscate your PC for our benchmark lab 8) Actually other test you can do is to drag & drop a large file, i.e. 4GB or larger, and time that.
