You will be surprised, as I recently was, that the new enterprise spinning disks from Seagate and WD boast claimed 280MB/s transfers, which can actually be sustained at 200-250MB/s depending on the model. IOPS has increased, too, though still a factor of 2000 or so under mid-range SSDs. -dsr- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
