    Hi Shay,

    They are the Barracuda ST1000DM003-9YN162 and are SATA III connecting. The connection probably doesn't matter as the one that is slaved is on a SATA II board. After all, SATA II is supposed to support transfer rates of up to 370MB/sec, and we are not getting anywhere near that.



    EDIT: I forgot to mention that they seem to hold a transfer rate above 150MB/sec for about 70% of the drive.

    Temperatures seem normal around 25~27C against an ambient of about 22C.
