No. The hard drive's speed is independent of the processor. However, a slow hard drive can reduce the performance of the computer overall, especially if the computer has insufficient memory to meet the users' demands and has to cache a lot of data.

∙ 12y agoThe speed of the CPU is usually measured in megahertz. One megahertz CPU will able to complete one million CPU cycles in one second. Thought, this does not imply that a 2 MHz CPU could be twice as fast as a 1 MHZ CPU. The speed of the CPU mainly depends on the work that is accomplished by a CPU in one clock cycle. A 1 MHz CPU can be faster than a 2 MHz CPU if it is more efficient in a clock cycle. In other terms, if the number of cycles is more, than the performance is better.

∙ 13y agoNo, space on a hard drive does not affect the speed of a computer's processor.
If you are asking if it will slow it down then:
No, if you have enough ram and your hard drive is not fragmented

In a coumpter what is known as the core?
The central processing unit (CPU). In the past, CPUs used to only have 1 core, but with the multiple cores in computers now, it is like having multiple CPUs.
What when used in multiples in a single computer can help a corporation reduce its processing time?
processor chips or CPUs
What is the speed of one of the fastest CPUs within the family?
pentium 4
Does a Dual core 3.4ghz CPU have a speed of 3.4ghz or 6.8ghz?
Dual core means two CPUs so what you really have is to CPUs each run at the speed of 3.4 Ghz and not one CPU that runs at 6.8GHz... Programming your Life...
What is the definition of processing speed?
Processing speed is the number of instructions a processor can execute per second.
What is the capacity of Intel CPUs?
CPU's or central processing units do not actually store data. There is a minimal amount of data on board but the storage takes place on the hard and solid state drives.

The number of transistors on a chip will double about every 2 years?
'Moore's law' says that the number of transistors on a chip will approximately double every 18 months. This has been the case for many years, but this law is now stated more generally as the processing power of computer integrated circuits (CPUs) doubles every 18 months. Or even more generally as, the processing power of computers doubles every 18 months. This can be seen as multiple cores are added to CPUs, and the capability of supporting circuitry (such as memory and bus speed) increases.
Give the price of high speed processor?
It's impossible to answer this question. There are hundreds of high speed processors. Be more accurate. There are CPUs that cost more than $1000 and there are also CPUs that cost $300. If you need it for a server or heavy rendering - $1000, if gaming $300.
What is the processing speed of the original Pentium chip?
The first Pentium chips had a processing speed of 60-66 MHz
When was High Speed Digital Spirit Processing created?
High Speed Digital Spirit Processing was created in 1997.
Can you run an AMD Athlon MP 900 with an AMD Athlon 1900 on your dual processor motherboard?
No. If you want to run dual processors, they need to both be the same speed, and either "MP" (multiprocessor) versions, or hacked 'normal' CPUs (there is a way of making normal CPUs report they are MP CPUs)
