why 1TB that's even slower than 5400rpm for a startup drive...? You can get a 500GB 7200rpm drive as startup and get a 1TB as external for storage...
lol i didnt realize it's only 5200 rpm Hardware General Mac Upgrade Discussion, Ram, HHD, OS/updates, Cable, Driver etc

There is indeed sufficient for leopard with 1gb of ram. As mbw 2007 only come with 1gb of ram. Only different is that the 2007 mbw come with a core2d 2.2 his only a PPC 1.6.

hey all, just here to ask again
i'm now using my imac (mid2007) the specs is intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz, ati radeon 2600 HD pro 256mb main memory, 4gb ram, 320gb hd... the question is, who win in the benchmark score between NVIDIA's GeForce 9400M 256MB shared memory vs my ATI RADEON HD PRO 256 main memory? it is because, just asking before upgrade to new imac the new spec is 2.66ghz c2d, and the graphic card is nvidia 9400m (2009 version) is the comparison between my imac and the 2009 imac is too far? hope u all can make me feel better.. |
