About Hardware Hitachi HTS722016K9SA00
The Hitachi HTS722016K9SA00 is an HDD with a 160GB capacity and 2.5-inch size, designed for laptops and other portable applications. Unlike most laptop HDDs that operate at 5400 RPM, this model has a speed of 7200 RPM, providing faster read/write speeds than standard HDDs.
With 16MB of cache, this HDD offers better performance in handling heavier workloads, such as multitasking or applications with high I/O requirements.

Specs:
CPU: AMD E1-1200
