Hard Drive speed?

[timzydee]

What are good read times for a giga HD. Here are the specs I\'m looking at on a 120 Gig. Is this good, or do I need something faster?

Read Seek Time (Average) 8.9 ms
Write Seek Time (Average) 10.9 ms (average)
Track-To-Track Seek Time 2.0 ms (average)
Full Stroke Seek 21.0 ms (average)
Average Latency 4.2 ms (nominal)
Rotational Speed 7,200 RPM (nominal)

Pretty normal for todays harddrives, and nothing to worry about. I think all 7200 RPM drive will work well with Giga - HOW well depends on other things, more or less out of the users hands, unfortunately. BTW I really like your GOS demos - nice!

Thanks Simon. It was actually the sound of your demos that encouraged me to get the library.
