The Ultrastar 36Z15's score of 10.0 MB/sec in the Business Disk WinMark and 25.4 MB/sec in the High-End Disk WinMark shatter records set not too long ago by Seagate's Cheetah 73LP. This, of course, means that the 36Z15 also handily defeats the X15's Business and High-End scores by margins of 23% and 18% respectively.

The 36Z15's primary target market, however, is that of high-end servers and workstations. Let's take a look at some IOMeter results.
