Hard Drive
by alasdair23 - 6/21/06 11:40 AMIf you are not gaming, but instead looking to listen to music, use a word processor, AIM, and watch movies, how important is it to have a 7200 RPM Hard Drive? Does the benefit really outweigh the added energy consumption?

Pretty much a caffeinated option.

It's not a make or break item but I'd avoid the slower 4200 RPM units since boot time and such does increase. 7200 will boot faster, load faster but as you suspect with a small penalty on battery times.
