Drive benchmark displays ambiguous units: MB/s and Mb/s

[Michael Doube]

Drive benchmark reports give results in units of megabytes per second (MB/s) on the y axis of the graph but in megabits per second (Mb/s) in the summary text. The values are the same.

So, I don't know if my RAID array is running about as fast as it should, or way slower.

I take it, these are actually megabytes (MB) not megabits (Mb)
