Nice - this is a great drive - very noticable difference in my X61 since I installed it, well worth the money.

Terrific deal. I have 3 of these, one in each of my X6x (incl tablet) machines, and the cheapest one (with a rebate) cost more than this one, without.
I'm headed overseas for a month, but if I wasn't I'd order another one of these drives in a heartbeat at this price.

How is the drive in your X6x tablet (heat, noise, speed, etc)?
I have a new X61 tablet on the way and I am considering replacing its 5400rpm drive with this 7K200, especially because of this great price.

Unless you are satisfied with inferior performance from your laptop/tablet, buy a 7200 rpm drive and increase your ram to 2gb min and preferably 3gb.
Heat/noise not an issue.

Just ordered one; hopefully its arrival will coincide with that of my new tablet. Thanks for the link!
