ReadyNAS 524X performance: encryption and transcode
I just got my new RN524X
Here are the encrypted performance tests done on a single volume, no RAID protection, Seagate NAS 4 TB disk
NAS performance tester 1.7 http://www.808.dk/?nastester Running warmup... Running a 1000MB file write on \\NAS-01\Test_Crypt 3 times... Iteration 1: 115.55 MB/sec Iteration 2: 115.51 MB/sec Iteration 3: 113.01 MB/sec ----------------------------- Average (W): 114.69 MB/sec ----------------------------- Running a 1000MB file read on \\NAS-01\Test_Crypt 3 times... Iteration 1: 94.30 MB/sec Iteration 2: 94.01 MB/sec Iteration 3: 94.13 MB/sec ----------------------------- Average (R): 94.15 MB/sec -----------------------------
The read speed is quiet deceiving !
I get same performance with the un-encrypted volume on a Seagate Enterprise NAS 8TB RAID1 volume
At lease, encryption seems completely benefiting from the AES-NI set in CPU with no performance drop
Any hints about the read performance ?
I am connected throug a 1GB LAN not the 10GB LAN for now
A bug in the forum locked this thread for sometime
I meanwhile opended another one:
So this one can be trashed / locked

Of course these speeds depend on the NAS, the network connection, and the client.
- Do you have another PC to test with?
- Do you have internet security or AV running on the PC
- Is the PC using an SSD? If not, what speed hard drive is it using?
- Are you using jumbo frames, or the normal 1500 byte ethernet MTU?
- Is ipv6 disabled on the NAS?
Compression + Encrypted:

There is little impact on write performance, so this also seems to benefit from CPU perfromances
The gain in read performance is probably due to the compression
