Now let’s see what we have in FAT32:

It is interesting that the file creation speed on SCSI drives doesn’t depend on the average file size at all and stays around 11MB/sec. For WD drives, this performance is very dependent on the average file size, but even in case of the smallest files WD740GD is almost twice as fast as any of the participating SCSI solutions. Not to mention the ISO pattern…

During files reading SCSI solutions from Seagate are again ahead. WD740GD managed to retain its leadership only in ISO pattern.

During files copying in FAT32 we witnessed only one surprise: WD360GD outperformed WD740GD. Well, things like that happen sometimes… Anyway, WD740GD is faster in NTFS :)
