Questions about this item
How much storage will the 3.2 GB capacity actually provide in a laptop?
The drive offers 3.2 GB of raw capacity; the operating system will report a slightly lower figure after formatting and file-system overhead.
What interface does the 2.5 inch 4200 RPM drive use and what does that limit?
The drive uses a legacy IDE/ATA interface, so maximum transfer speed is capped by that bus rather than the 4200 RPM spindle.
