The same disk was used for all the usb tests, and had way more
mbytes/sec over eSATA.
The iSCSI tests were done with a ramdisk.
You are missing the point, which was to question whether the real
workload you are applying is sensitive to MB/s rather than IOPS as most
workloads are. A 7200 rpm disk performing 4KB random operations will top
out at under 120 IOPS, which is 480KB/s. If that is what your workload
does, it doesn't matter whether the inrerface can do 20MB/s, 30MB/s or
300MB/s, you will still in reality be limited to 480KB/s.
