Further testing would need to be done, preferably with a "control" hard disk used in both units (something for a later blog update, I feel) but gut feeling here is that what we are seeing here is mostly down to the change in HDD: both disks are 5400rpm units, but the Toshiba MK1255GSX in the Slim is packing twice the data density of the Seagate Momentus ST96812AS in the 60GB launch unit. Both HDDs spin at the same rate, but the Slim will be reading or writing more data at that same speed. Over and above that, I do reckon there's a good chance that the seek times of the new Blu-ray drive are faster - that would explain some of the results we're seeing here, in particular the Call of Duty one.
dont worry it looks like its slims Harddrive thats making things faster
so if u got a fat chances are that ull see the same increase if u put a better HDD in it
