HP brands the Seagate ones, there are 2.5" SAS 36GB and 72GB, both
in 10K and 15K and then 146GB in 10K currently (at least what HP sells).
I have been seeing on Raid 5 and Raid 6 ADG via HP P400 and P800 controllers
as much as 180MB/sec during large writes on 4 and 6 drive arrays. I was
impressed when I first got my initial servers with SAS. But under Linux
I have seen lately some issues I need to check more. Wished I could
run more FreeBSD though :-/
