7200RPM (remember, that's 1200RPS) drives get *hot*. I wouldn't put
one in a laptop. (It's one of the tradeoffs you make for buying
something that small.)
ThinkPad T61 here with 7200RPM SATA HD:
# hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: WDC WD3200BEKT-******: 35°C
The drive has been spinning for 3-4 hours now.
I'm impressed. What airflow? On my Thinkpad ?43, without proper
airflow the internal fan starts spinning loudly.
What do you mean by airflow?
Under the case, where the fan expels hot air.
I haven't modified the T61 case, and the fan
doesn't seem to run any more often than with a 5400 RPM drive.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ah. With a docking station (or suitably cut piece of wood), the fan
on my T43 only comes on during boot.
