What brand of HDD in T400?

#1 Post by wolf-zhang » Tue Aug 26, 2008 12:59 pm

I am considering to upgrade the T400 after i order it.

Actually Hitachi's 4th generation laptop HDD is available now, with very attractive specification (22% less power consumption, 12% faster application time).

So i am trying to decide now that, if i just upgrade it on Lenovo's website now or i buy it and replace the newly Hitachi one later by myself? If the lenovo also use the Hitachi's HDD, i may just upgrade it on Lenovo's website now directly.

If you have T400 or T500 and can help to check this for me, great thanks.

Happy thinkpad.

Thanks! Actually if you can use some software to read the HDD information like 7k200 3rd generation~, it will be even better.

My T400 arrived with a Seagate Momentus 5400.4 -- I chose the 250GB 5400rpm option.
