Anyone (Bueller?),

Any news out there on an internal 1.8” HD for our TRs that spins a little faster?  That’s the single biggest choke point that I can see on my TR5.  It’s got a fast chip, 1Gb RAM, and a fast typist.  :D All I need now is a faster spinning HD.  Hitachi, Toshiba—are you listening?

i think the 1.8 was designed around power issues over performance.

Also, an 1,8” HD with 4200rpm is faster than you might think. They have a quite respectable density so it doesn’t necessarily need to spin that fast. (I think it’s still slower, however)
