Arrgh, you are right. I guess I had too many pages open, and copied the
wrong one.

But the good news is that the stats were already in favour of the 3710
so this only increases that conclusion.

The bad news is that the sustained write speed goes down with a factor 4.
So that is 5Mbyte/sec. Which is real easy to obtain, even with hardware
0f 2000.
