Benchmarks: NAS Performance Toolkit

Intel's NAS Performance Toolkit simulates various workloads to gauge theoretical performance. Content Creation is primarily a test of random writes, Office Productivity is a read and write test involving hundreds of small files, Directory Copy from NAS is a read test that uses 2,833 files, while Photo Album is a largely sequential test of mixed-sized reads.

The three NAS servers benchmarked on our new test platform all employ different drives, so while the head-to-head comparisons should not be considered definitive, we can say that the My Cloud Pro PR2100 falls off the pace in the NASPT tests.
