The total space on your computer isn't the key issue, although the more junk like lots of unused program files will slow you down.
You need to look at RAM , 2GB RAM should be ok for everyday use, 4GB ram is probably the highest you could get in a high street store, (for now at least, wouldn't be suprised if there was a 16 or 32 GB ram before 2020)
The HP 8530w laptop can be configured with any of the following hard drives: 120 GB, 160 GB, 250 GB, or 500 GB 5400 rpm SATA II, 160 GB, or 250 GB 7200 rpm SATA II, 80 GB Solid State Drive
RPM = Rotations Per Minutes. the higher the rotation speed, the faster your computer can read/find your files.
When accessing programs and files, a faster speed will decrease load times.
About 7,000 rpm.
Basically, yes. Assuming you're referring to the hard drive, the RPM is how fast the drive spins. If it spin faster, it can locate the data faster, but keep in mind it will also use more energy and get hotter.
The RPM of your hard drive. A 7000RPM drive is faster than a 5000RPM drive, and an SSD is faster than all Platter hard drives.
Rpm's are computer controlled and can not be adjusted.Rpm's are computer controlled and can not be adjusted.
Yes, you will see a difference in performance, read tests and write tests. As rule, 5400 rpm hard drives are faster and perform better.
Around 6500 RPM's.
Ranges from 250 to 450 rpm.. If there is need to increase the speed then the rpm is eventually increased as per the need
160 horsepower at 4200 RPM
You can also relate this to the car crank shaft speed , and it is measured in Revolutions Per minute =RPM's. faster your crank shaft rotates (RPM's), the faster your pistons travel up and down the cylinders, thus the faster your car will go. Hope this was what you were looking for...
