QuotesPlus R1 faster with two drives? I recall Gary Lyben's remark that the speed advantage of two drives was from reducing disk head movement. Do I recall correctly? Now, the simple implication, if that is true, is that R1 would be faster with data on a second drive.

However, some further deep thought touches on how wonderfully the two drives might cooperate. Is one an older, slower that sets the transfer for both to its own slower rate, for just one complication. I'm not very astute in these (or any other matters) so, probably much else also complicates the formula to compute any end result.
