Best 500GB internal hard-disk (FDE) for Thinkpad?

#1 Post by arlab » Sat Feb 06, 2010 3:13 pm

It's time to change my harddrive.

Which should I buy?

Is the "500 GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm", which can be used in the costumization of Thinkpads, any good? What brand is it?

Also, does it have Full disk encryption? Which has?
T61p T7800 2.6 GHz, Vista Ultimate x64, 15.4 WUXGA, NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M (256MB), 4 GB SDRAM, 200GB 7200rpm, Intel Turbo Memory 1GB, Intel 4965AGN, Bluetooth.
