The 73LP's score of 8.8 MB/sec in the Business Disk WinMark 99 is enough to edge out Quantum's Atlas 10k II, the longtime champion, by a margin of less than 1%. The Seagate similarly bests the Quantum in the High-End WinMark by a more substantial gap of 7%. We should take a moment to note that "besting the Atlas 10k II" also means "besting the Cheetah X15" when it comes to WinMarks. According to WinBench 99, the Cheetah 73LP is the fastest thing out there.
