Smitty2k1 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Looks good! Did you do any read/write speed testing with that low powered Atom? Quote Link to comment
jbartlett Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 Looks good! Did you do any read/write speed testing with that low powered Atom? There wasn't any slowdowns in drive performance that I could perceive. I've used that same board in another build that runs Windows 10 - it's not zippy but it's not like watching a 300 baud modem either. Quote Link to comment
