Stitch, Are these actually second actuators or are they talking about micro actuators on the suspension assembly (HTCH has been working on this for awhile) which would reduce seek time but not affect latency. It would also add only a very small cost compared to a second head, suspension and actuator. Also, I believe John is working under the assumption that internal data rates are the bottleneck rather than the drive interface which is actually much slower than existing internal data transfer rates.
