    Was wondering if anyone knows what the HD speed is on the Asus A8Jc? I have asked a couple of retailers here in the UK, but they don't seem to know.

    Thanks

    Here In Taiwan it is 5400RPM. But It really depends on where you are. I'm not sure about the UK.

    European version has 4200RPM, I recommend you Seagate 5400.3 - It's quiet and very fast

    Thanks for the info. I'm presuming it should be pretty straightforward to change the hard drive?

    Oh, if I do that will there be any warranty issues?

    It is a Fujitsu 5400rpm with 8MB cache in Canada.
