Plus they have a clear storage capacity and price advantage over the SAS CTO storage system option offered by Apple for the "early 2008" Mac Pro.
But if you are looking for drives that can capture or playback large video files, the 7K one terabyte Spinpoints appear to be the way to go. So it looks like if you want to use the SAS drives for a single or dual drive boot set, it's the top dog as expected - especially when you look at those Disktester 4K transactions per second. That would explain why the three and four drive 7K Spinpoint SATA RAID 0 sets go much faster since each drive has a 300MB/s (3 gigabit) data channel dedicated to it. My guess that it's feeding all four drives from a single data channel that maxes at 320MB/s. Shop Quality & Best Laptop LCD Screen Directly From China Laptop LCD Screen Suppliers.

But we saw a different picture when we tested single drives, two drive RAID 0, and three drive RAID 0. When we first tested the SAS vs SATA drives in only a four drive RAID 0 set, the 7K Spinpoint SATA drives surprised us by "smoking" the 15K SAS drives.
