Thecus® N16000 Shows Bleeding Edge Performance

Write and read speeds exceeding 1100 MB/s!

10/20/2011 - When it comes to speed, Thecus's flagship rackmount NAS, the N16000, gives a number of options to choose from. It supports 10 gigabit Ethernet, which is 10 times faster than standard 1 gigabit Ethernet and can reach transfer speeds well over 1000 MB/s, as well as 10GBASE-T Ethernet to get the speed of 10 gigabit Ethernet at a drastically lower price.

10GBase-T Ethernet runs next-generation high speed networking over standard Ethernet cables (RJ45) with a PCI-e Ethernet card that plugs into the N16000. This allows your company to make the change without a large investment in infrastructure; simply install the new device and it's ready!

In the new speed demonstration video we look at advantages and disadvantages of RJ45, copper (SFP+), and fiber optic cables; demo read and write speeds; and look inside the Thecus N16000 to see what sets it apart from competition.
