It's not too great for your hard drive(s) to do that since they have to jump around all the time, and it'll slow down the entire process. It's much better to do one file at a time, not to mention that unless you have dual core and you're only hashing two files, it's much more efficient to hash just one file at a time :P

Yeah, sure a RAPTOR will!

And the newest 300+ GB drives probably will too, since their data density is very high.

But even many new computers still come with 200 GB and smaller hdds that maybe aren't that fast to begin with...and even if they are, they are crippled by all the extras many OEMs like to install to give the "Branding" feel.

Yeah, I do in fact have a dual-core as well as a seperate drive for IRC/P2P/BT downloading and it still takes it's share of resources.
