Here, there isn't really any trend. The Fireball AS surprisingly bests both the 60GXP and 75GXP (which score identically) in ZD's Business Disk WinMark score, though by a small margin (2%). In the High-End Disk WinMark, the 60GXP flexes its muscles and leads the pack with 17.7MB/s, leaving the 75GXP in the dust.
Overall, it can more or less be said that WinBench 99 shows the Deskstar 60GXP to be the performance leader.
Decent Disk WinMarks are only part of the story. Let's see what enlightenment Intel's IOMeter brings.
