Hello,
I have just read that the 5400 rpm hard drive is better for storing large files such as pictures, movies and graphics. But the 7200 is better when acting as a system drive running applications that care less about latency instead of throughput.
But I believe I need both. I work as a graphic designer and I need to store a load of large PSD files and other native Adobe files as well as large jpegs's, png's and such.
And I need to be able to work quickly with multiple applications from the Creative Cloud plus several audio and video building apps.
So, with that said... should I go with a 5400 or 7200?
My current laptop recently failed the System Memory test and the Advanced Pattern test. So, I am either going to try and repair it or I am going to buy a new one. Either way I'd really appreciate some input
Thanks in advance!
Kara
