I’m not sure what’s different, but I get 2:1 or even 2.3:1 transfer speeds using the drive. It’s way faster than transferring from a camera or a deck.
I’m running an 2007 octo with 8 gigs of ram hooked to an apple xraid 3tb. My drives are 70% full.
Forgot to mention that I got those transfer speeds on a dual 2.0 G5 as well before upgrading to the octo.
I’ve been using the drive since last september. Now if only they would release the firmware for making the drive writable
