    Hi,

    Should be an easy question.

    I have seen on one website that the w3j has a 4200rpm drive and on another it has a 5400rpm.

    Could someone confirm please?

    Thanks

    Darren

    The N.A. version is 5400rpm, the worldwide is 4200rpm? I know the UK one is.

    Depends where you're buying it.

    U.K and perhaps some other E.U countries it comes with a 100gb 4200rpm.
    U.S version currently comes with a 100gb 5400rpm hard drive.

    If you look wherever you are looking, there will be a model no. which follows the W3J part, for example the U.K model with the 4200rpm drive is W3J- H002P

    Hope that helps.

    Cheers guys, that does help.

    I've decided to go for the V6J instead!

    Thanks again

    North America including US and Canada are come with 100GB 5400rpm 8MB cache Fujitsu hard drive. If you are going to take a V6J, it also comes with a 5400rpm HD instead of a 4200rpm in V6v.
