 From netfinity 3000 with 128MB and RAID 2x 9.1GB IBM SCSI 3:

  Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 1.06 seconds =120.75 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 3.33 seconds =19.22 MB/sec

5 x Macs all get 9+MB/sec read and write transfer rate.

As Marcus said... it really does come down to motherboard/disk spees,
not the proccessor (or thou it helps im sure:)
