Upgrading your system to a high performance 7,200 RPM hard drive

For most applications, a standard 5,400 RPM notebook drive provides great performance, but what if you are looking for even greater speeds?

In addition to increasing capacity, Apricorn's high performance 7,200 RPM drives can also increase your notebook's speed. The fastest available hard drive for notebook computers, Apricorn's Xtreme Drives have a 70% faster spindle speed and a 400% larger cache over 4200 RPM drives.
