just FYI, 200GB HD at Dell $110

Didnt know where to put this. I thought fellow Lenovo owners could appreciate a good deal on a hard drive for your laptop. may even be able to retain shock protection through IBM software.

Here's the link. Hard Drive
Specs from the site:
The 200 GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA Hard Drive with Free Fall Sensor from Dell™ combines the freedom of mobility and enhanced productivity for mainstream and high-performance PCs/workstations. Featuring Serial ATA interface, this drive delivers 3 Gbps interface speed. Offering a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, this drive provides fast disk access. The 16 MB cache optimizes performance so that applications run fast and smooth. Incorporating Whisper-Quiet operation technology, this hard drive ensures silent operation while G-Force™ protects data from physical shocks.

 

Any one know if this performs as well as the Hitachi Travelstar 7k200 200GB?

edit: Nevermind, after some research I found out that it is the Seagate 7200.2 200Gb HDD, which is not as good as the Hitachi. Still a great deal though.

 

i did some searching around and the unofficial word is that the drive is a seagate momemtus 7200.2. all the specs are the same and the techhnology is almost exact to the dell description. hard to tell until it arrives.

This might help you with your question
