![]() ![]() ![]() The NAS has an SSD for caching, so what I'm looking for is performance of the two interfaces, 10Gb ethernet and Thunderbolt 3 (or even 2) for this kind of load. But then I realized I don't really have any media capable of saturating the bandwidth of a 10Gb network (an SSD I use to record videos reaches 350-370 MB/s over USB 3), and my usual network load centres around a lot of small files (images, MP3s, sometimes compressed videos), so rather than total bandwidth, it's random read performance. But Thunderbolt 3 is faster, so I initially thought it would be automatically better. eSATA can deliver 6Gbps (older versions deliver 1. ![]() The most recent USB 3. I currently have a TVS-872XT connected over 10Gb ethernet and I'm quite happy. All three standards are much, much faster than USB 2.0, which tops out at 480Mbps. USB 3.0 features a data transfer rate of up to 5 Gb/sec, while 3.1 takes that up to 10 Gb/sec, still four times less than what Thunderbolt 3 can do. I'm in the process of changing PC, and since the new rig will be a Ryzen 3 with an X570 motherboard I don't know if waiting for the Asrock X570 Creator (which features 10GbE and Thunderbolt 3) is worth. Before posting I did look for an asnwer, and found some (including a thread in this forum), but not exactly what I'm looking for. Since Thunderbolt 3 is backwards compatible to USB, all Thunderbolt 3 cables will work as USB-C cables too.
