thanks again, don. i surely defer to your explanation i'd like to know how i get 1,500K per second with DiskSpeed – if that's only a 'burst' measurement or is it sustained – which would seem to be close to the theoretical limit you mentioned in previous message. appreciate the continuing enlightenment on drive theory. hope others read this thread and learn something which may help us all to distinguish hype from practicality in the drive speed game. as i mentioned – even the 2x faster apparent speed of my 2383N doesn't result in 2x faster real world performance, but about 50% better. i do think transfer rate is the difference here. what does transfer rate really mean from the perspective you've been explaining in this thread?
