Performance Rating

The following graph compares the NAS's performance rating to that of other units. The comparison is pretty straight forward as the tested unit is shown as 100% and every other unit is relative to it. Please note that we only measure the raw performance in the graph below, not each unit's functionality or available feature set.

Performance per Dollar

The following graph will be the most interesting to most because it shows how much a NAS's performance will set one back. We looked the current USD price of each NAS up on Newegg and used it and all relative performance numbers to calculate the performance-per-dollar index. We search for the unit at other popular online shops (Tigerdirect, Amazon) if Newegg doesn't stock the NAS, and, if the unit is not sold in the U.S., we search popular EU shops (e.g. Caseking), converting the price to US dollars.
