File Copy Test
File Copy Test is a pseudo-real-world benchmark that times how long it takes to create, read, and copy files in various test patterns. Scores are presented in MB/s.

Now that's more like it. The i-RAM rips through FC-Test's file creation tests two to three times faster than any other single drive. Only our four-drive RAID 0 array exceeds the i-RAM's performance here, and then only with a couple of test patterns.

File read performance isn't even close; the i-RAM tears through this test, offering better performance across the board.

The i-RAM doesn't slow down in the copy test, either. It's more than four times faster than some of our single-drive configs, and easily much faster than any of our multi-drive RAID arrays.
