Hard Drive for Windows 2000 Tests IBM DPTA-305020 ATA66 IDE, 20 GB, NTFS

I'm concerned about the fairness of disk latency in these benchmark tests.

What was the disk cache specification for all these CPU benchmark tests?

Did all computer systems tested for CPU benchmarks have identical hard drive set ups, including disk cache?
