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...

Just to ensure my post is preserved in the sticky, see my testing in another thread: http://www.infrant.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7520
Summary:
18 MB/s IOTEST write performance with journaling off, no jumbo frames, and GE switch (Netgear GS108)
The ReadyNAS+ compares very favourably to nForce4 Ultra RAID performance in RAID1 or RAID0+1 configuration for SATA
ReadyNAS beats the nForce4 Ultra PATA RAID controller.
ReadyNAS beats my desktop WinXP system as CIFS fileserver
ReadyNAS compares very favourably to offline storage systems like DLT tape drives
An additional observation is that with Retrospect up and running, I have never had such a good backup solution as the NV+ and Retrospect.
