real life write/read speed to/from the disk inside please?

Would depend on the disks you purchased for it and your network setup. This is an entry-level unit. Performance for me is adequate to back up multiple computers. Make sure you have jumbo frames enabled on all of your network devices. If you want a NAS that can really move data quickly across a network, look for models with dual ethernet ports and use trunking.

I use a usb 32 gb drive (dont need alot of time in my specific application)

The drive itself is only 5,400 RPM. However, if your only option is Thunderbolt or USB 2.0 (2011 iMac for instance) then this drive will still offer higher performance over a 7,200 RPM external USB 2.0 hard drive. USB 2.0 is limited to about 60MB/s (480Mbit/s), and this drive achieves around 105MB/s - 109MB/s according to http://reviews.cnet.com/external-hard-drives/buffalo-ministation-thunderbolt-1tb/4505-3190_7-35338125.html. Having said that, I have two of these. I have one on a 2013 iMac (i7 & 16GB Ram) and another on a 2011 iMac (i7 & 16GB Ram). I use them as external drives for my Windows 8 virtual machines. They are very speedy, and I haven't had any performance issues as of yet. You're correct however, you will never see 10,000GBit/s as they imply.

Using the USB Connection with my desktop, it probably takes an hour. I can't honestly say i have kept time of the process, though.

In "layman's terms," how much time does 32GB provide in recordings? (hours? minutes?)

I use mine like any other external hard drive. Read/Write like any other hard drive on the system.

The RPM is another factor contributing to the total speed of your drive. Your drive may have a sufficient read/write speed but the time consumed accessing those locations where data is to be written or retrieved is depended on the rpm.

I am using an older desktop computer and with a USB 3.0 card installed into my computer. Testing speed using HD Tune Pro and a 2GB file I get a write speed 105 MB/s and a read speed of 130MB/s. You will never get maximum stated speed as this is faster than a mechanical Hard Drive you would need a SSD Drive for maximum speed. I purchased the 64GB Version late 2013 and use every day and never had a problem and love the speed.

Just got the 128GB version. Running Crystal Disk Mark 64bit - Sequential Read: 100.7MB/s Write: 100.8MB/s 512K read 25.2MB/s write: 57.11MBs 4K random read: 0.263MB/S write 0.943MB/s 4K random QD32 read: 0.457MB/s write: 0.694MB/s - Hope this helps everyone to decide!

The Write speed was between 9.83 MB/s and 14.43 MB/s The Read speed was between 64 MB/s and 78 MB/s I have the 16 gb and I used usbflashspeed for benchmark

I do not recall. I do not think the rotational speed of the drive would explain such incredibly slow transfer rates I was getting about 10 MB per hour.

The PNY Turbo Plus Attache USB 3.0 Flash Drive (32GB model) reads as fast as 140MBps* and writes up to 70MBps* . (From Google search)

Sequential Write speed for the 128Gb is 150MB/s if i remember correctly.Sequential Write speed for the 256Gb is 300MB/s.Sequential Write speed for the 512Gb is 500MB/s.They all have the same Sequential Read speed of 550MB/s.

Yes, however it runs at half speed. I get 40mb/s instead of 80mb/s write speed. Read speed is okay but there are intermittent drops in speed

MLC or TLC NAND question has been answered. But, I just wanted to clear up something that made it confusing to me when purchasing the 64gb. Amazon has the description for the 64gb as "Up to 90MB/s Read Speed, 50MB/s write speed". The samsung packaging I received clearly shows "read speeds up to 90MB/s, Write Speeds up to 80MB/s". Glad this is up par with the speedy 32gb version. Hope this helps.

I believe the wrote speed is up to 90MB/s* and writes up to 60MB/s. Hope this helps.

Sandisk says "write speed up to 90 MB/s"I did some tests with my USB 3 Card Reader (sandisk brand) Wrote a 4gb file to it and averaged 75mb/s and even faster on smaller files.. PC: i7 2600k @ 4.2 Win 7 64bit
