Maybe it was spot on, because Netgear released a new firmware for the WNDR3800 that promise some NTFS improvements, as the readme says.
So, here are the new tests with firmware version V1.0.0.32:
root@pc:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=t/testfile bs=4096 count=102400
102400+0 records in
102400+0 records out
419430400 bytes (419 MB) copied, 27.8515 s, 15.1 MB/s
102400+0 records in
102400+0 records out
419430400 bytes (419 MB) copied, 27.8515 s, 15.1 MB/s
root@pc:~# dd if=t/testfile of=/dev/null
819200+0 records in
819200+0 records out
419430400 bytes (419 MB) copied, 41.313 s, 10.2 MB/s
819200+0 records in
819200+0 records out
419430400 bytes (419 MB) copied, 41.313 s, 10.2 MB/s
and the updated table:
| Format | Read MB/s | Write MB/s |
| local USB | 27.7 | 28.7 |
| NTFS | 10.2 | 15.1 |
| ext2 | 12.0 | 19.6 |
| FAT | 10.2 | 14.6 |
NTFS now has reasonable performance, but ext2 is still the best choice.
Hi,I have an HD with 4 partition: 1x HFS+(made with osx),1x ext2(made with gparted-xubunt and 2x fat32 (made with osx). When I connect the HD,I can not see the ext2 partition on readyshare. Is there a specific way to make ext2 partiton or are there problem with permission?
ReplyDeleteSorry for my english.
I have no Macs so I can't test it.
ReplyDeleteAre you sure your disk is formatted in MBR mode, instead of GPT?
My ext2 partition was recognized without any additional configuration.
It was a permission problem. I am trying to open a truecrypt container inside an ext2 partition but until now I did not succeed.
DeleteThank you anyway!
Did you run your tests wired or wireless?
