I think they are generally lighter weight and dissipate (sp?) heat better.

Two-Piece Rotor Upgrade

Advantages:

Lighter rotor (12-16% weight reduction varied with the size and design) than original one-piece rotor – meaning lower spinning weight.
Cooler disc - due to higher heat dissipation rate of aluminum hat than cast iron
True full floating (not all out in the market see design description) allows the disc to expand and contract freely without stressing the hat therefore prevents the disc from warping or cracking.
Replace only the rotor ring, the hat is reusable therefore although the initial cost is higher but the operating cost over the time could be lower than one-piece rotor.
