It says in the Technical Information that it's 5400 rpm but in the Product Description says it's 7200 rpm, which one is it?

It's 5400 rpm. Although 7200 rpm discs are usually faster at gathering data this hard drive will outperform both 5400 and 7200 standard hard drives. It's cache and solid state memory allows the drive to gather and process data very quickly. From the time I hit the power button to Windows 8.1 being up and ready to go usually clocks at around 14 to 18 seconds. I have an HP Envy DV6. Laptop with an I7 processor 6 gigs of Ram. Since installing this hard drive I have not found a desktop or another laptop that can keep up.

http://wdc.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1704I quote: "We can only guarantee drive capacity. We cannot guarantee a particular internal hard drive model, data interface, rotational speed, or cache size in the external hard drive enclosure."So it's probably 5400 RPM (the cheaper option).

The general rule is the faster the better. You can use any RPM, but why. I have 5 each 7200 rpm in mine.

RPM (High Speed): 171 Unfortunately, the manual does not specify RPMs for each of the four speeds.

The literature says it has a no-load speed of 2000-4000 rpm. Seems about right while using it.

The WD10JPVT is a 5400 RPM HDD, Amazon has it wrong in their product description.

3600 rpm on the professional series (Wal-Mart sells this one for $120) and 3000 rpm on the entry level series (the one they advertise on the infomercial that is not stainless steel but is still $120 through them. I purchased mine from Wal-Mart so mine is stainless, 3600 rpm.)

I believe the Western Digital Passport series qualifies for the 7200 rpm speed but this USB powered drive is powered from the USB port with no means to power it with an external power source. If you must have an externally powered drive you might consider purchasing a external hard drive enclosure that supports that feature and a bare drive with compatible specs and then assemble them yourself.

There are two speed settings. When set on 2, the higher rpm setting,it's rated at 1400 rpm.

The RPM is 3400 = 6,000 gallons per hour. I hope this answers your question.

Like others have stated, my Makita has a single speed of 10,000 rpm. I suspect that the "Product Description" is for a different tool. The "From the Manufacturer" description appears to be correct. That said, I think it's still a great tool and would buy it again.

7200 rmp, my husband usually buys 7200 and 10,000 rpm drives for our recording studio.The slower rpm ones may last longer, but just don't well. (Barry)

As I understand it, the manufacturer does not publish the RPM parameter for most of their drives allowing them greater flexibility in using whatever internal device the need to meet the performance requirements. I looked and cannot find it specified. My educated guess is 7200 RPM.
