    I'm doing a bit of research for an upgrade, I'm curious as to what brand and model Dell is currently putting in their m15x/m17x for a 500gb 7200rpm drive?

    Do I need one with a freefall sensor? I see on my build sheeet somethingsomething 'freefall'. But my seagate 250gb model does not list 'asg' simply 'as'.

    thanks
