Only on C00L systems like yours.

You're still avoiding the issue: we don't have a common package for
comparing drive speed.

Yes, perfectly.

But we haven't got any valid grounds for comparison yet. You don't have the WD
850 or 730, so you can't post any stats about it.

2500k/sec CheckItPro (known to be generous) vs 800k SysInfo. How can we compare
that? We can't, and you know it. Once again, you've missed the point.

Grant, your very comment that you wouldn't want to win the Nobel Prize, or
do anything even slightly cultural, is enough to keep me laughing in
stitches all night. Actually, it's fairly obvious.
