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...

ReadyNAS Ultra 6 Plus
RAIDiator 4.2.15
X-RAID2, 2 disks, 32% of 1751 GB used
Seagate ST32000644NS 2TB x 2
NetGear GS724T-300NAS Switch (wtf is the NAS?)
(Old) Home Built PC using Intel Dual Port Gigabit NIC PCIe card.
Intel Core2 Quad Q9300 2.5GHz
Raid Mirror 2 x Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1TB drives
LAN Speed Test (02-03-2011 at 22:02:29)
2GB file
Teaming / LAG / Trunking / whatever enabled over 2 ports PC = Switch = NAS.
Jumbo frames NOT enabled. What a bloody nightmare. Maybe with phone tech support I can reconsider.
I also ran Iometer tests: Reads 30-50 MBps, writes 72-83 MBps.
Drag and drop 3.12 GB of Metallica in a folder NAS -> PC 49,328,385 Bytes per second
Drag and drop 3.12 GB of Metallica in a folder PC -> NAS 79,865,004 Bytes per second
The drag tests are self timed, no cache cleared so rather unscientific.
