I collected 2.07 GB (2,227,218,801 Bytes) of data for performance testing: 16,004 files in 966 directories. The data consists of 60% program files, 20% MP3 files and 20% graphics files (JPEGs, GIFs and TIFs) of widely differing size.

Please note that the USB streamer will not be compared with the two high-end models, for the simple reason that Seagate's TapeStor USB is a consumer product, while the others are definitely not meant for the mass market.
