Default O.T. Missing Folder/files

I did a search and used the same title and found this:

but your correct about the versions and there's no rush.

Just for fun while were waiting for the keyboard I did a HD Tune scan
on both computers. The first is the 8500 which I did after it had sat idle
for about 30 minutes and nothing else was opened.

The second is the 780 which I did right after the 8500 but it had not sat idle
with nothing else opened.

Interesting the difference in the scans with the 780 graph at the bottom
with spikes and the scattering of dots. The transfer rates are way off and so are
the burst rates yet the only difference between the two scans was the 30 minute
idle time.
So now I'm letting the 780 sit for 30 minutes with the HD Tune still
open (I would have to reopen it anyway) and here's the second scan on the
780 after 30 minutes:

Now this scan is much more like the 8500. It's amazing the difference of letting it
sit for 30 minutes does. I looked it up an it says that the burst rate should be higher
than the max transfer rate and neither computer is. Is this of concern?
