The band width in the SATA3G are no where close to being used regardless of how fast the HDD spin.
Most barely use the SATAI max.
Further more, there are so many varables in data transfer it's mind boggeling.
There are some 7200RPM SATA3 drives that handle high volume file transfers better than the current Raptors with the likes of masive media files. But on the other hand the Raptor is better overall for the performance of a PC's OS and more realistic file managment.
Give and take, give and take, one attribute don't make for the sum of the whole.
