The latest SATA 3 drives have a theoretical 6000MB/s throughput.
No they don't. The SATA 6 Gb/s max is roughly 600MB/s. Lets not mix bits and bytes, okay?

if you really want to be a pedant, 6 gigabits is actually closer to 750 megabytes ;)

And if you want to be even more pedant: Serial ATA protocol uses 8b/10b encoding, meaning that transmitting 8 bits actually takes 10.

So it really maxes at 600, not at 750.
