    I've placed my order for the Studio 1537 yesterday (yay), and I was wondering what type of hard drive Dell equips the Studio 15 with. The order confirmation says I have a 320 GB 5400 rpm HDD (reference number 400-14158).

    Thanks. :)

    Do you mean which brand? They use all vendors so it is luck of the draw.

    If you get a one that does not report its temperature then its FUJITSU!!

    I have a Fujitsu in my 1520 that reports its temperature.

    But neither 1420 I had will report temperature interestingly enough.

    Hmm, I figured Dell would only have one type of HDD. I guess I'll just have to wait and find out.

    You open it up or run software to tell you...they just use what is cheapest at the minute they build it like all venders do...
