    Hello,

    I have bought a new dell latitude d630. I want to check whether the speed of my harddisk is 7200rpm or 5400rpm. How can I do that?

    Thanks...

    Not to be a smart ass or anything, but your signature says it's 7200rpm... :p

    If you're uncertain which it is, check the drive model number in device manager and do a search in Google to see which drive it is.

    You can also run programs like CPU-Z to find out.
