Ali,

thanks for the info. My bios is several years old, so I probably can't do it. Will definitely try it on my next machine (ca. 2010).

Maxtor gives a max head-to-media transfer rate for its DiamondMax Plus 40 family of 43.2 MB/s
maxtor.com

IBM cites 494Mb/s
storage.ibm.com

If these have to be adjusted 20% for your 2-bit overhead, that leaves 34.5 for Maxtor and 49.4 for IBM.

I think IBM gets its advantage from its leadership in GMR heads.

wily
