Question:
DV2000t SATA Hard Drive?
I just got my dv2000t from HP the other day. I selected the current offer they have for free upgrade from 40g hard drive to 60g hard drive. It didnt say anything about it being a SATA hard drive. Does anyone know if this is a SATA hard drive?

Yes it is, all new HP's use SATA HDD.

Re: DV2000t SATA Hard Drive?
Thanks for the quick reply. I was wondering because i exchanged the dv2000t with 80g hard drive, and intel 950 GMA for the Nvidia 7200 with 60g hard drive (to save some money). It seems to run a little hotter, and the hard drive seems to get a little warmer as well. The fan goes on more with the new configuration. I also can hear the hard drive "working" more on this one than the 80g one. I am assuming its running hotter because of the separate graphics GPU? None of these small issues would make me return it, but I am just curious.

Some drives are just noisier no rhyme or reason. Discrete cards do run warmer.

i'am guessing the 60gb working harder probably because it has smaller cache.

All of the HP drives have identical cache size, read/write speeds and seek times according to HP's technical specs.

Yeah, thats what I also figured. The notebook definitely runs a little warmer though than my previous one. I am still assuming its the separate GPU.
