NetBench is a portable benchmark program that measures how well a
file server handles file I/O requests from 32-bit Windows clients, which pelt
the server with requests for network file operations. NetBench reports
throughput and client response time measurements. Version 7.0.2 of NetBench
answers user requests for greater disk coverage and more disk-testing
flexibility. To run NetBench, you need a file server, a PC running Windows NT or
Windows 2000 (called the controller) to start and monitor the tests, and clients
that are running either Windows 95/98 or Windows
NT/2000.

Here with the first test dm_nb70 we see that with
HyperThreading does not affect performance.

I'm not really sure why the S2722 performs so
much lower than The S2720. I reran the benchmark a few times and got the same
result.
