File Server Comparison: Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 and Novell IntranetWare 4.11

Overview Mindcraft tested the file-server performance of Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 and Novell IntranetWare 4.11 on a Compaq ProLiant 5500. We tested file sharing using TCP/IP for both servers. We show the peak throughput measured for each system in megabits per second (Mbits/S), the price of the software tested, and the price/ performance in dollars per Mbits/S. Windows NT Server 4.0 offers high-performance file sharing on one- and two-processor systems. It outperforms IntranetWare 4.11 and its performance characteristics help keep users more productive and aid system administrators in providing appropriate file-server capacity.
