Hard Drive

WD Scorpio Blue 2.5" HDD

Intel 510 Series 2.5" SSD

The standard hard drive installed is the Seagate Momentus 7200 RPM 2.5" drive. We also have the Seagate 5400 RPM drive and the WD Scorpio Blue 5200 RPM drive. These optional low RPM 2.5" drives run very quietly.

For total silence and extreme speed, a solid state drive (SSD) is the way to go. SSD prices have come way down lately making them a viable choice for your system. System boot-up time is typically 15 seconds and programs launch in the blink of an eye. Adding an SSD gives you the most noticeable performance increase over any other type of upgrade.

Select Dual drives for additional storage. With dual drives, we install the operating system and programs on the SSD and set-up the second HDD for data and media storage.
