Performance - Storage SSD SATA6G
With the new SATA 600 controller and USB 3.0 controllers we started adding SSD performance numbers measured on such interfaces (when applicable). So here are some raw peak performance numbers.
Above, you can see a Corsair Force GT Solid State Drive running over the SATA 600 controller on this motherboard. The implementation works well but is far from the high-end enthusiast levels this SSD can achieve.
We are not getting full performance though as this is a drive that can manage 500 MB/sec in read/write performance. The other 3 SATA300 ports will run roughly 250~270Mb/sec at maximum.
Realistically though, a board like this combined with say FreeNAS software would make for a pretty nice NAS unit. Then again, there's no RAID support though, but even so ...
