Default Inspiron 9300 slow HD performance??? WTF?? - 04-06-2007, 23:57 | posts: 4,137 | Location: New Jersey

I've got an 80GB Toshiba Model MK8026GAX in my Inspiron 9300. I believe it is a 5400rpm hard drive.

The performance is so slow on it. I have just reloaded windows full format, and to load things in the same game takes 3x as long as it would on my normal desktop.

The specs to them are both the same almost except my desktop has an 80GB WD 7200RPM drive in it.

What can I do to speed this damned drive up?
