Yeah, I\'m a computer science major, I know all the finer points. There is some difference. Not NEARLY as much as you might think in actual real-world practice!
But I hope this doesn\'t get too complicated. We\'re talking about the Nikon. And I clearly showed that it increases a person\'s editing time by a factor of about 2 or 3. When added up from editing an shoot like a wedding or even a day at the beach with your kids the extra hours one will spend can be significant. And to the point IMO, where most potential buyers for this camera will feel swamped by the task! Including if they use something like LR or C1 exclusively.
That was really my only point.
I would like to know of this consumer HDD you speak of that gets 60+MB/s throughput. Any links? Remember if you\'re talking about HS Server class drives they were also available 8 years ago and got about 50mb/s to 60mb/s too. SSD\'s are faster at reading but not so much at writing. They have an inverted profile from an HDD. And they\'re still insanely expensive AFAIK.
