Performance
If you wish to tweak the system performance, select Performance from the main menu. Note that
some of the settings suggest that you utilize an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) before
enabling that option:
Select the Disable journaling only if the NAS has UPS protection. Without battery backup,
there is a small chance that parity written to a disk in a RAID set might become out of sync
with the data disks if a power failure suddenly occurs, possibly causing incorrect data to be
recovered if one disk fails. Without full data journaling, disk write performance increases
substantially.
