didn't read the blurb on the HDD - been operating me SATA's for the past

I didn't expect there to be any, if much. Throughput on a hard drive
is more a function of mechanical speed and platter density than burst
speed. Makes a nice sales gimmick to charge a couple of more dollars
more for the otherwise same drive though.

How long is soon? When they get the capacity up and the prices down then
they will become the defacto standard. That's a few years away yet.
