i don't think there is ANY difference with 1 or 2 SATA HDD.
however here is my single proc Xeon2.8 (512k)
         g723   gsm  ulaw  alaw  g726 adpcm  slin lpc10  g729 speex  ilbc
   g723     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -
    gsm     -     -     2     2     2     2     1     6     9     -    14
   ulaw     -     3     -     1     2     2     1     6     9     -    14
   alaw     -     3     1     -     2     2     1     6     9     -    14
   g726     -     3     2     2     -     2     1     6     9     -    14
  adpcm     -     3     2     2     2     -     1     6     9     -    14
   slin     -     2     1     1     1     1     -     5     8     -    13
  lpc10     -     4     3     3     3     3     2     -    10     -    15
   g729     -     4     3     3     3     3     2     7     -     -    15
  speex     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -
   ilbc     -     4     3     3     3     3     2     7    10     -     -

and here is a dual Xeon3.2(1M)

         g723   gsm  ulaw  alaw  g726 adpcm  slin lpc10  g729 speex  ilbc
   g723     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -
    gsm     -     -     2     2     2     2     1     4     9     -    14
   ulaw     -     2     -     1     2     2     1     4     9     -    14
   alaw     -     2     1     -     2     2     1     4     9     -    14
   g726     -     2     2     2     -     2     1     4     9     -    14
  adpcm     -     2     2     2     2     -     1     4     9     -    14
   slin     -     1     1     1     1     1     -     3     8     -    13
  lpc10     -     3     3     3     3     3     2     -    10     -    15
   g729     -     2     2     2     2     2     1     4     -     -    14
  speex     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -     -
   ilbc     -     3     3     3     3     3     2     5    10     -     -

the conclusion to me, is comparing transcoding capabilities with show
translation is like bogoMIPS...
