Anyone ever upgrade their notebook hard drive? What are my options? Can they
make a notebook hard drive just as fast as a 7200RPM 3.5" desktop drive?

I got the fastest drive Toshiba offers with this model. It's a Toshiba
Satellite, 512MB, P4-HT 3.2GHZ, but it's SLOW. I attribute it to the slow
hard drive.

Do you notice it being slower than a desktop 7200 drive? It just seems to
dog when loading apps and games. I think it's a 7200.
