[ltp] Q: X41 compatible HDD

[Donald B Altman]

Hello,

I have a T42p, so this may not apply, but...

I just recently upgraded to a Western Digital WD2500BEVE 250 GB 5400 RPM 
ATA drive.  While a bit slower than my Hitachi 7200 RPM, it uses about 
half the power (0.55 A vs. 1.0 A) and is quieter.  The larger capacity 
per track makes the RPM slowdown barely noticeable.

Good Luck,

Don A
