Good afternoon all, I was doing some reading and love the pictures that ROG posted of his new iMac/disection.
Then I saw some benchies of his HDD speed after the upgrades etc - NICE!!
That got me wondering what my read/write speeds are on my iMac. It's got the Seagate ST31000528AS 1TB drive, so the speeds are obviously lower than most of you with the SSD's. (edit: it's slower than anyone with an SSD lol)
Here's the question: what sort of speeds should I be seeing while using Black Magic's Disk Speed Test? I ran a few tests and they were around 120/120 ish.
Is this normal?
I searched and searched and couldn't find much in the way of stock read/write speeds for my particular model.
FYI, it's specs are below:
i5 3.1
12gb ram
1TB Seagate HDD ST31000528AS
6970m 1GB
Thanks again guys!
