512GB Seagate HDD 5400 RPM

Sounds like its written by someone that have never owned a Core 2 Duo, as I remember the disk sizes of that time was 500GB, 750GB and 1000GB at 7200 RPM, I think 5400 RPM is slow and mostly used on 2.5" or 5.25" disks.

    5400 rpm was very common. 7200 were the performance drives.

    As I remember around 2007, 5400 RPM was frowned upon in builds.

    The disks I have from that time is a WD RE2 (very noisy 7200 RPM) and a few WD Green's (I think they are slower than 5400 RPM just to mess with my arguments).

    The computer actually came with an SSD, they swapped it because they appreciate the time to think between one operation and the next
