    Which drive will the envy 17 come with and which drive performs better? These are the only 2 2.5" 1TB drives i see released as of now.

    I'm almost positive it will be the Western Digital drives. I don't think any HP laptops come with Toshiba drives, but I'm not sure.

    My replacement Envy 15 and my old dv6500t came with Toshiba drives. They even use Seagates on some Envy 15 batches.

    Really? I stand corrected them. Has HP usually used Toshiba drives?
