Asustor AS3104T 4-bay NAS review

Simon Crisp September 23, 2016 Featured Tech News, NAS, Network, Reviews

We tested the peak power consumption of a NAS at the wall during a run of CrystalDiskMark 5.0.2. This version of the benchmark runs the read and write benchmark suites separately so it's easier to monitor what power the device is using during each function.
Power comsuption
With a processor with a TDP of just 6W, the AS3104T is a pretty efficient NAS even with four 6TB drives installed. But it does help when the drives only have a power requirement of just 6.4W each.
