Drobo 5N2 NAS Review

Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives, SSD’s and other storage devices.We are using V3.0.3.

It's no real surprise to see the SSD disk sets completely outperforming the HDD sets when it comes to reading the very small files of everyday use as can be seen by the read result of CrystalDiskMark's 4K test. The faster spin speeds of 3 out of the 5 disks in the mixed HDD disk set give it the edge over the WD Red set when it comes to read performance.

  1. Why didn’t you do the benchmarks with link aggregation enabled? The 5N2 has 2 gigabit LAN ports. This is one of the main reasons anyone would want to upgrade.
