In the write portion of Sandra, the Seagate Constellation ES ST1000NM0011 manages a Write index of 114.0MB/s, compared to 109.4MB/s for the WD RE4 drive. So far it's looking like the Constellation ES HDDs are a hair faster than the RE4 drives from Western Digital.

HD Tach results are coming up after the jump.
