So everyone knows that one of the biggest bottle necks in a computer is the Harddisk (mostly) and the faster you can make this the better your computer will be, I have always tried to ensure that my computers had at least 7200rm disks due to the faster RPM and inturn better basic performance..
This had been true until I got a proper laptop, where battery life was king, in short I installed a 64GB SSD, Sorted!.
Back to my desktop, as I have been out of the desktop arena for around 5 years I dont fully know about every single new term (read:SATA300) all I know for sure is that a 10,000RPM is better then a 7,200RPM, it has to be, for that money
Strangly its a 2.5″ although its about 50% thicker then a normal one, is that normal?

Fast as 10k can be
It goes nicely into this bay here

antech nice


And install Windows 7 (20mins)

Is it fast? in a word YES, can I prove it.. Ill post some pics.. soon
