ATTO Technology FastStream SC 5300 Performance Benchmark page 2

Summary of Results – Filesystem
The FastStream was setup in a dual DVRAID
configuration, mapped to two independent Fibre
Channel 4 Gb ports using ATTO Express Power
Center. This resulted in breakthrough performance for
a parity protected solution. The following benchmarks
were run in the provided configuration through an
NTFS file system. ATTO Disk Benchmark was used to
perform read and write operations using the most
popular video transfer sizes. The transfer sizes ranged
from 512 kB up to 8 MB. The maximum performance
that was achieved in this configuration was 483
MB/sec reads and 221 MB/sec writes.
performance provides
standards they expect from an Avid storage solution
while providing a new level of data protection.
Summary of Results – IOmeter
In this configuration, raw performance numbers were
measured. These numbers do not include a file
system and show raw performance to the disk drives
without the aid of any additional software. The
maximum performance that was achieved in this
configuration was 433 MB/sec reads and 247 MB/sec
writes.

Conclusion
For transfer
applications (512 kB – 8 MB), the FastStream SC 5300
provides the
demanding editor. This performance coupled with the
advanced features of the FastStream such as data
protection, online capacity expansion and ease of
configuration allows customers to leverage their
existing storage infrastructure.
difference becomes even more dramatic at greater
queue depths which are now supported in the latest
Operating Systems.
The FastStream
performance by implementing ATTO's advanced RAID
algorithms and conversion technology. This allows the
customer to benefit from advanced data protection,
thus decreasing lost project time and better utilizing
valuable resources.
About the FastStream SC 5300
The ATTO FastStream SC 5300 Storage Appliance is
a mid-range
bandwidth-intensive applications and is capable of
delivering the high data-transfer rates required to
support uncompressed HD, multi-stream real-time
uncompressed SD video and multi-track audio editing.
The ATTO FastStream SC also offers a unique
combination of performance and flexibility by enabling
your direct attached SCSI storage to become part of a
storage area
agnostic. Connect individual disks, JBOD's or RAID
systems and instantly increase performance and
reliability. In addition, you can easily add new storage
as your needs grow with the capacity expansion
feature. The ATTO FastStream SC Appliance is
available in an industry standard 19" 1U rack-mount or
desktop unit, provides high-performance features such
as hardware-based RAID, DVRAID™, multi-host
connectivity, ATS™ technology, field serviceable
design and simple management and configuration with
ATTO's ExpressNAV™
features a built-in performance tool for the remote
monitoring of application performance from the GUI.
