hahah! LOL! you’d better make sure you have an sata raid 0 or 0+1, or better yet, a scsi raid array. No way in the world that you can reach the 72 Mbps if you record from a single HDD unless you get a 15k rpm scsi drive. Dont know if the speed is read or write, but if its a 1x write speed, our lame hardware has a long way to go.

that may be true but it does not stop the disks being (very) fast, it looks like they are truly ready for the future.
