Workstation Pattern

Like earlier, red marks the worst results, and blue marks the best.

We compare the performance of the drives by calculating their performance ratings with the following formula:

Performance = Total I/O (queue=1)/1 + Total I/O (queue=2)/2 + Total I/O (queue=4)/4 + Total I/O (queue=8)/8 + Total I/O (queue=16)/16 + Total I/O (queue=32)/32

A disk subsystem made of Seagate’s drives would be the most efficient. They are closely followed by the two drives from Fujitsu. The 4200rpm MHT2040AT from Fujitsu quite expectedly delivers the lowest performance in this test.

Note that Fujitsu’s ATA drive is slightly faster than its SATA mate.
