•Select Disable journaling if you understand the consequences of this action, and you do not mind a long file system check (only after unexpected power failures). File system journaling allows disk checks of only a few seconds verses possibly an hour or longer without journaling. Disabling journaling improves disk write performance slightly.

Note: You can buy a UPS with USB monitoring at a very reasonable cost. By safely allowing the performance options to be checked, you can effectively double

your write performance and provide uninterrupted service of your ReadyNAS Duo for a very low price.

•The Optimize for OS X option provides the best performance in Mac OS X environments when connected to the ReadyNAS Duo through the SMB/CIFS protocol. This option, however, introduces compatibility issues with Windows NT 4.0; do not enable this option if this device will be accessed by Windows NT 4.0 clients.

•The Enable fast CIFS writes option allows for fast write performance by enabling aggressive write-back caching over CIFS. Do not enable this option in multi-user application environments such as Quick Books where synchronized writes are necessary to keep files in sync.

•The Force CIFS filename case-sensitivityoption provides substantial performance improvement when you access CIFS shares when many files are being copied; however, before enabling this option, understand the ramifications.
