Single Client Performance Summary
The DS414 caught us off guard with the single client performance. This is the first time we've tested a Marvell based system at the same performance as units using Intel's Atom processors. The Armada XP processor is up to the task and delivers the level of performance users are looking for in a low cost, easy to configure solution.
