Well for my birthday my dad decided he would pay half of the laptop I'm getting. It's a SONY Vaio VPCS111FM/S.

It's a blazingly fast laptop, but the 500 GB is only 5.4K RPM. Anyone recomend a faster HDD that's under $120? Needs to be at least 160 GB.

You can get a 500gb 7.2k rpm drive for under $120. If you're lucky, you may find a 640gb under $120, but I doubt it.
Just get any 7.2k rpm drive.

What Is The K At The End Of 7.2k
-
K = 1,000
7.2 x 1,000 = 7,200.
lol idk I just like writing it like that
And can I find them at bestbuy? I don't wanna buy online or go store hoping
-
OK thanks for explaining this
-
Lol....
And sniper. Uhm, check Bestbuy's online site to see if they carry them, or call up and check prices beforehand.
I checked NewEgg real quick and 500GB 7.2k drives were either $105-115 or $160+
