Seektimes and average transfer rates have already been addressed earlier within this thread, besides the original capacity topic. |
So then you do not deny the 360's drive is faster when seek times and everything else is taken into account? Just using average transfer rates gives a misinformed picture.
|
Like I said, any such comparisons regarding worst case scenario seektimes are wrong. If you take the maximum data capacity of a 360 DVD, like 6.8 GB, it won't have worse seektimes. Only if you go well beyond that capacity, worst case scenario seektimes are worse, but by far not as bad as the time involved with changing discs. 
Just reread this thread and follow the links, it's all pretty well explained.

Stop being stubborn Mike. Admit you were wrong and that the 360's DVD drive is faster and does read data off of 360 games faster than a Blu-Ray drive reads data off of PS3 games.
After people proved you wrong in this thread, you ignored their posts. You only posted information to those whom did not know what they were talking about, because you knew you could get them to be confused and believe you based on your flawed arguments. Just admit the 360's drive is faster and reads faster... Just do it.... it won't hurt admitting you were wrong. I promise.

You do know that discussions are not about who is right or wrong, cuz that's childish, but there about being informed and having an understanding of what's actually being discussed....just a thought.
|
I'm sorry. It's hard not to act childish when discussing with Mike. Anyways, in that case, MikeB please admit that you were "informed" of your inaccuracy and that the 360's drive is faster.

inner track no, average for a DL disc no, outer track yes, average for SL disc yes, please clarify when making such statments, since it's dependant where it's a SL or DL or weather the lens is reading the inner track or outer track, or weather your refering to obsolute values or average values, cuz you can be right but also wrong.

Ok, inner track is not used for game data, but DRM. And also, you are not counting in seek times, but are basing this solely off of transfer rates. Pretty much all 360 games except a very select few are on DL. So counting in seek times AND read speeds/transfer rates for the outer tracks on a DL disk (which is basically all 360 games), the 360 drive is faster.
