New Hard Drive (60gig, 5400 rpm) FINALLY

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Lol, toshiba came out with their 60 gig 5400 rpm hard drive for notebooks.... here's the link to the page with all the specs.

Nevermind, that link doesn't work. I'll just paste the specs here, lol. As soon as I can get back to that page... :-)

Ok, this link should take you to the main hard drive page, and on the right is the news for their new hard drive. In case this doesn't work, I'll post the specs below the link.

It's pretty nice cuz it has 16 meg cache (phew, lol, otherwise it'd be slow as jack for a 60 gig). It's one of the first 5400 rpm hard drives for notebooks that is that big. Now what I am wondering is will this hard drive fit in place of the hard drive inside the 8886 by default?? It's model # MK6022GAX and its dimensions are 69.85 x 100 x 9.5 (mm). Hopefully pctorque can help with this one.... Lol. If it can't fit inside, hopefully it'll at least fit in a drive bay.

yeah, I should have specified that this is 9.5 mm... Any word on whether this will fit in the 8886 in place of the original hard drive?
