Review: WD Sentinel DS6100

Benchmarks: Iometer and File Copy

The results reflect some of the inconsistencies experienced during our time with the DS6100. WD's server absolutely flies in the 64KB Iometer benchmarks and all-but saturated the bandwidth available to the Gigabit connection, yet it struggles to maintain that level of performance in our File Copy Test, which entails transferring an 8.83GB assortment of mixed-sized files to the server.
