I/O density?
Hi,, buddy: so what is I/O density? it because this section said "For a single disk drive, various disk vendors provide the disk specifications on their Internet product
sites. Since the access times for the Fibre Channel disks (not FATA) are the same, but they have
different capacities, the I/O density is different. 146 GB 15k RPM disk drives can be used for access
densities up 1 I/O/GBps. For 73 GB drives, the access density can be 2 I/O/GBps and for 300 GB
drives, it is 0.5 I/O/GBps. While this discussion is theoretical in approach, it provides a first estimate. It
