I only spent a minute or 2 on it, but yeah ATA drives don't tell you that sort of thing, they say stuff like "ATA133 for a max transfer rate of 133 MB/sec *" then at the bottom the * says something like "133 MB/sec burst rate from drive to controller" or something similar. But I did try fairly hard to find specs on our Seagate drives and couldn't find a hard number that told what the maximum read and write speeds were.
