Boot and load times
To test system boot and game level load times, we busted out our trusty stopwatch.

The RE3's level load times are a hair quicker than those of the Caviar Black, but well within the margin of error we'd associate with manual stopwatch timing. More interesting are the boot time results, which have the RE3 a full 10 seconds slower than its desktop counterpart. These results were consistent across multiple test runs, although boot times are of lesser importance in enterprise environments where reboots are generally avoided.
