The integrated AES encryption engine of the Ryzen 7 1700 works hard to lessen the effects of encrypted data transfers. It offers better write performance than read performance, losing just 6MB/s in RAID 6 and 4MB/s in RAID 6 with a 1GbE connection as opposed to the 27.5MB/s and 24.5MB/s loss in read performance when in RAID 5 and 6 respectively.
