Belkin 5-Port Gigabit Switch F5D5141-5 - HD Tach
(Page 6 of 7 )
Additionally, tests were run using HD Tach. The relatively small size of data transferred in the SiSoft Sandra tests allowed all the data to be buffered in system memory, but for the 7.78GB file it obviously has to be written to the hard drive as it is received. It is also ironic that the hard drive speed of the system corresponds to the performance of that system.
Medium File Transfer
With the smaller (medium) file size of 103 MB, the inadequacies of each system's architecture is less apparent. The A7N8X-E was 2.5 times faster than the baseline 100 Mbps system. Again, there does seem to still be a reliance on the underlying system. The L5GA took almost twice as long as the A7N8X-E, but at least it wasn't slower than the 100Mbps system this time.
Also presented as megabits per second.
