Would like to share with the DIY folks that I've installed Ubuntu Server 10.10 X64 on a box and the performance is great. This Ubuntu version is much faster than 9.xx versions.
When performing a data restore to the NAS (5*1 TB disks in the Linux RAID array with 256k chuncksize) from a Windows7 X64 client using Robocopy, in total 376 GB was written to the NAS in 1 hour and 7 minutes, that is 95.1 MB/second! I think that is an impressive write-speed considering the amount of data and the large number of 13000+ files.
