Thread: Aspire 5672 laptop Hard Drive Upgrade

I am considering upgrading from my original HD in my Acer Aspire 5672. Any suggestions on what you should consider driving? I would like at least 200 GB to make it worthwhile to do.

In Acer 5672 I upgraded from 100 GB to 320 GB (5400rpm/SATA) Samsung with no problems. To improve performance I recommend you to think I or II 7200rpm/SATA drive.

I had upgraded the HD in a 5315 (running a T9500ES) to a 200GB 7200rpm Hitachi, which has issued a WEI score of 5.5. For comparison purposes I tried the same Hitachi drive in 6920G (T9300) and gave the same score of 5-5 WEI.

I upgraded my Acer 5672 to a 250GB WD Scorpio. Works great. The Acer 400 and 500 GB versions should be out soon if you can wait.

I am preparing to improve the performance of the first (5400RPM -> 7200rpm) and the second capacity (120GB -> 250 or 320 GB). It seems that the yield increases significantly with a minimal change in energy consumption.

I'm going to upgrade my HD and am thinking about the Western Digital SATA-300 are WD3200BJKT. Sounds like that works well on my Acer 5672.

Hitachi 5K500.B will also be released, which will have insanely low power consumption, so it must be very cool and calm, with a similar performance as well.

Its a good upgrade to do just that to get an update Hitachi, WD or Seagate 7200rpm with 16mbs of cache and sata300 got mine at tiger direct but if you are satisfied with the performance of the space requirement, but to obtain a HM400LI Samsung 400GB SATA

I am a big fan of Seagate. I have had several problems with others, but never the hard drive a Seagate. They seem to have quite extraordinary reliability and (for me).

HDD Seagate has also been building forever. They know all the reliability and performance of engineering "tricks." They wrote the book after all.
