Even on the high end it is still thousands of times slower than you can move electrons through a bus.
Well, I guess it would, indeed, surprise you that the typical velocity of an electron in a 1.8 VDC memory bus is (at best) a few hundredths of ONE millimeter per second, if that! So, yes, you can move a HDD head faster than push an electron through a memory buss. Try again. And no, electrons are forbidden to travel at the speed of light, c.
Einstein was wrong. God loves to gamble and He cheats too!
