Is anyone else surprised by this result? I was expecting differences
measured in milliseconds not micros.
Try the same experiment with some old belt-driven 5.25" drives, such
as a Tandon TM100 or Shugart SA450. Almost all 5.25" and 3.5" drives
made since about 1986 have been direct-drive units with much better
stability. Some of the old 5.25" and 3.5" drives were perfectly
dreadful. ISV could be much higher also.
