1 TB 5400 rpm Hard Drive can be upgrade to 750GB 7200rpm or 1TB 7200rpm?

Yes you can. But spend the extra and get SSD drive. It is soooo much faster and does not have a problem with being bounced around.

It uses a 7200 RPM drive. Version 1 used a 5900 RPM drive. Both are SATA III with 64MB cache.

It depends on your user environment. 7200 rpm drives will be more responsive to a certain extent. However, slower spinning drives run cooler and require less power. Depending on your usage scenario you might benefit choosing either. You need to carefully assess what it is that you need to accomplish. There is an excellent review on anandtech that was published recently where multitude of NAS drives were put to the test. Every drive tested had redeeming factors. You might want to check it out.

I believe the drive I installed in it was 1TB. Actually, as long as it's a 2.5 inch drive, the capacity, I believe, is irrelevant.

Order 1 from amazon, make sure it is SATA. 1TB or less, I am using a 250GB laptop hard drive. GL Mike

This computer came with only a 500GB 7200 RPM hard drive. However, there is an expansion slot for you to add an SSD if you are interested in going that route.

According to the box the max is 1TB drive. I have 500gb drives in the 2 I got the drives are a tight fit

Thank you for the info, I'll take a look. By the way would you recommend a 1tb 5400rpm or a 750gb 7200rpm? Is the speed trade-off worth the space trade off? thank you

Nope. The HP you are referring to only has 1 2.5 inch bay, so unless you modded that case there no place for another drive. a 1TB drive would double your capacity though. So I'd check that out.

Easiest upgrade is to buy 1 TB unit from Amazon (now on sale at $129.99) and sell 500 Gig on eBay now going for around $70.

I got the 7200 rpm 1 tb, Both are hard drives. Your laptop has a mount when you take the old one out. You will need to remove the mount to install the new Hard Drive and put it on the new Disk Drive. I was a very simple process for me however, you need an image of your Operating System to reinstall your (OS).

You're right, I did get the 5400 rpm unit. I bought it in April and when I click on the link for the item I bought, it goes directly to the 7200 rpm unit for $98.45.But, the 5400 does just fine and I don't notice it any slower than my older 500 mb, 7200 rpm unit it replaced.

From what I found on HP's site you should have no problem replacing your 40Gb with the WD1600AAJB 160Gb drive. And at $32 it's a good option. It IS an IDE drive. Be sure you match the jumper in the back to match your existing drive. Since you're replacing a 7200 rpm with another 7200 rpm I don't think you will see much of a speed difference since the specifications are pretty much the same. The seek time is the only difference I can find from 10 (old drive) to 8.9ms (new drive).

It's a solid state hardrive. That means that it is much faster than your typical 5400rpm/7200rpm hardrives. Instead of reading your memory off a rotating disk, it uses flash storage similar to your usb keys. the capacity is 1Tb, or 1024 gb of storage
