Correct numbers for EADS

As Pieter de Goeje kindly pointed out, due to an overflow bug, phybs reported incorrect tps numbers. I’ve corrected the bug and started re-running the benchmarks, but so far, I’ve only had time to test the WD20EADS. Here are the results:

Remember, this is not an Advanced Format drive, but it’s still surprisingly slow and surprisingly inconsistent.
