I found a new review of the Netgear ReadyNAS Pro 6 on pcadvisor.co.uk. The ReadyNAS Pro 6 includes a standard Intel (non-atom) processor for better performance. The ReadyNAS Pro 6, as the name implies, is a 6 bay NAS.
Performance is summarized:
Like all other NAS drives, it could comfortably meet gigabit speeds for large file reads. And in write performance, the Netgear ReadyNAS Pro 6 proved the fastest unit too – at 1MB it could write at around 17MBps, rising to a leading 50MBps for 10MB data and 86MBps for 100MB data.
For power consumption tests, we stressed NAS units with the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test, where we noted that even larger data chunks (1-5GB) could sustain 110MBps, in both directions – a good result.
When idle, the Netgear ReadyNAS Pro 6 slurped 40W (5W more than a QNAP TS-419P II under full load, for instance) and up to 84W when in active use.
