[QUOTE="Badger, post: 197145"] As stated above, much of the mini design is based on using laptop hardware. There are several sites that have installed 7200 rpm drives in the mini. While they seem to have worked without immediate problems all of them noted that the 7200 rpm drives generate more heat than slower drives. The long-term effect of the extra heat is unknown. Several of the sites also noted that the improvement by increasing the RAM was system wide whereas disk speed is more limited to specific operations and programs. [/QUOTE]
