Apace Systems NAS Storage speeds. How fast to move data?
To calculate how long to move files or data on a GigE ethernet network from Apace Systems NAS:
Question: How long to transfer on GigE pipe 200GB of data?
Answer: Take 200GB x 1000 = 200,000. MB or Megabytes. The speed of our Apace Systems NAS storage devices are from 200MB per second (MBps) or up to 400 MB per second (MBps) depending on model. Remember not Mega BIT, but Mega BYTE, 8 bits to a byte.
Take 200,000. MB divided by 200MB per second or: 1000 seconds, divided by 60 seconds to a minute: 16.66 minutes
16.66 minutes to move 200GB with Apace Systems 200MBps NAS!!!
Take 200,000. MB divided by 400MB per second or: 500 seconds, divided by 60 seconds to a minute: 8.3 minutes
8.3 minutes to move 200GB with Apace Systems 400MBps NAS !!!
You can see now if you purchase our eStor NAS devices and plug into your ethernet switch, you can move data at a very high rate. You can migrate or move content from local internal drives on editing stations to our eStor or vStor in minutes. No more deleting files to make drive space! No more buying SLOW USB or FireWire external drives! No more not being able to SHARE video clips, graphics or files with EVERYONE on the network! And all of your data is RAID protected at no additional cost!
