With a
WinBench 99 measured
access time of 6.0 milliseconds, the MAM virtually matches the
X15-36LP. Subtracting 2.0 milliseconds to account for the
rotational latency of a 15k RPM drive yields a measured
seek time of 4.0 milliseconds, a bit off of Fujitsu's 3.5 ms claim.
Outer-zone transfer rates clock in at 57.2 MB/sec, a little bit short of the Cheetah X15-36LP's record-setting 60 MB/sec. The Fujitsu's inner-zone rates, on the other hand, come in at 44.8 MB/sec, virtually the same as Seagate's drive. The overall effect is a, relatively speaking, ruler-straight STR graph.
