Speed may be important to you when using the system, but it poses an intersting question about what motivated buyers. e.g. just as most 4WD vehicle owners don't ever need that feature, they clearly buy on it. Consumers -- especially in Desktop DD segment, I think are muchmore prone to ask "how big is the drive?" vs. "how fast is the seek time or burst transfer rate?" Initially I did not believe QNTM had made the right bet. Now I don't know. PS I am long in both co's.
