hdd read/write speed

[snail]

So, what hdd do you have and what is the average read or write speed of it? I use HD tune to test, I have the following,

WD caviar black 500GB
Average read speed is 109MB/s

I tested my Seagate 2TB 5900rpm when I got it.
If I remember correctly I got average write speeds of high 90's to low 100's and read speeds of just over 100MB/s.
I was really happy with the speed.

In the end its the controller that will be limiting the performance.
