| - | Clearly gigabit has an advantage here in most situations, but not as much as Newisys is stating in it's datasheet (18 - 22 MB/s). This is because RAID-5 puts the most strain on the CPU and storage subsystem and Newisys has probably used RAID-0 to produce these numbers. This is somewhat misleading because all NA-1400's are sold with the harddisks preconfigured to use RAID-5. I assume not many users will change this default configuration. | + | Clearly gigabit has an advantage here in most situations, but not as much as Newisys is stating in it's datasheet (18 - 22 MB/s).

| When it comes to moving lots of small files around, the NA-1400 cannot benefit from a gigabit network. | When it comes to moving lots of small files around, the NA-1400 cannot benefit from a gigabit network. | ||
