10,000 rpm Mobile Hard Drive?
I know that there are 10,000 rpm hard drives for desktop computers, but I searched on the web and could not find one for laptop computers. Does anyone have any idea when they’ll come out with one?
Btw, laptop drives are 2.5″, right? But my computer technician told me that Seagate’s 2.5″ Cheetah 15,000 rpm drive cannot be used in laptops. Why not?
Many thanks,
C.L.
The faster drives wipe out laptop batteries very fast. SO they are technically not a viable solution for laptops. Not sure why the tech said the cheetah drive won’t work unless it is a sata drive and your laptop uses eide (pata) hard drvies.
