Only marginally related topic here...

I'm kinda still trying to wrap my head around the whole data throughput issue. Perhaps someone can clarify for me.

OK...purely hypothetical numbers here:

If you've got a 1X speed Disc Drive with a transfer rate of say 10MBps is the data throughput not equal to a 2X speed drive with a transfer rate of 5MBps? And isn't data throughput the most important factor in load times?

Am I totally off base here?
