Hi all,
I was hoping someone could tell me what's going on.
I work for IBM and am getting a new laptop (T41).
The model I'm getting comes with a 5400RPM hard drive
but I convinced my manager to order me a 7200RPM hard drive
because I firmly believe that the hard drive is a severe bottleneck
in this system.
The hard drive I was able to order is a:
Sigma Data 60GB, 7200RPM Hard Drive
I have never heard of this brand nor do I know anymore specifications. Can anyone tell me if they think this will be as good as the Hitachi 7200rpm notebook hard drive? Any other comments regarding the desire to upgrade my laptop to have a 7200RPM drive?
Is it possible that this drive will not be faster than the 5400RPM drive that normally comes with the T41?
Thanks for any input/comments.
