Business Disk WinBench 99

The 3 TB Western Digital AV-GP (WD30EURS) edged out its Green Caviar compatriot, the WD30EZRX in this test, despite lacking the faster 6 Gbps interface. Well, it goes to show that the 6 Gbps SATA interface is really more for bragging rights than anything else at this point in time.
