No, but I have run w2k3 and Ubuntu on the box on various occasions - enough times to know that the performance difference was not a random anomaly. I also have a 2nd box that I've tested in the same way and achieved the same outcome. Not that hard to do because I have in the past had Linux and Windows SOEs for both PCs so the time requirement was minimal.
The difference in scan speed under Linux versus Windows is so vast it is even audible. Under Linux you can hear the ReadyNAS drives are processing a lot of data almost from the second you hit the rescan button. Doing the same under Windows never puts the ReadyNAS under the same "pressure", in fact there is no discernible audible difference under Windows between the ReadyNAS being idle and performing a rescan. If it wasn't for the blinking of the ReadyNAS HDD activity LED you'd think it was standing idle. -- egd Linux and loving IT! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ egd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3425 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33041 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
