That's what I thought, which is why I'm perplexed why my 6Gbps SATA drives (5,400 RPM at that) are completing their badblocks runs way ahead of the 3Gbps SATA drives, which are all 7,200 RPM.
The single 6Gbps SATA drive in the full chassis completed sometime during the night. All the remaining 26 drives, all 3Gbps SATA, are still chucking along. Currently testing with pattern 0x00 at 75%, so there's still a reading and comparing cycle to complete.
So for whatever reason, the drives with 6Gbps SATA interfaces are somehow completing badblocks much faster than drives with 3Gbps interfaces... Almost twice as fast in fact.
