That statement would be true, but with questionable relevance for his PowerMac
Actually, your point is taken, although I have swtched to 2.5 drives in a lot of hardware including desktops.
But this is a 3.5" drive.
As to Win10 and MacOS...
I'm using Windows 10 of a couple of systems.
There ARE some odd lags on systems with lower core counts.
My dual core i7 (which supports four threads) doesn't seem to work as well as an older Phenom II X4, but that is probably due to the difference in clock speed (the Phenom being about 1GHZ faster AND has the advantage of a discreet graphics card).
And I haven't upgraded from my FX-8370 to a Ryzen based system yet, but that runs very well.
So, I think its really a matter of how much raw power a system provides.
And, in a straight comparison, I still don't see much difference between MacOS and Windows in terms of performance, on similar hardware.
