~260MB/s write, ~280MB/s read. Bursts up to 600MB/s. These are sequential numbers. Random read/write is going to be less than 10MB/s. The drives used are most commonly Seagate Exos X16 (model number ending in 001G) or Seagate Exos x18 (model number ending in 000J). Less common is an ironwolf pro drive. All of these are helium filled. The exos are enterprise drives.
