has a stock cpu fan and a Blu-Ray player

brand is ZT

has Win 8 with a passworded account

cant log in to see what video card it has

funny thing is I didnt know what pc it was since the case had no brand and no labels(besides the Windows one) but I saw an i7 sticker and felt I should take the risk

looks like I have another winner
New or used?

Better wipe those harddrives..............:usure:

You don't want the hybrid in your ps4. It won't help out and is slower. The hybrid is good for laptops with no ssd.

edit: scratch that, i just checked your links. they hybrid is actually faster. Maybe shoulda gone with that. The ssd caching probably won't help much though.

5400 is kinda slow, but it's what the ps4 has already, right? You shouldn't notice a difference

theyre different sizes dumb fukk

no wondered you needed Fry's to help build your computer

one's a solid state hybrid you idiot too. Get my name out of your mouth. You're worse than a bytch. You truly are a sad man-child.

And the speeds are different. You're a fukking moron. Nothing I said was wrong.

:dwillhuh:

Look at the links you fukking moron! They are different types of hdd and have different speeds. Or can you not read?

You're the most pathetic poster on this board :damn:

Mowgli asked why one was more expensive than the other despite both being the same hard drive capacity. Thats it. One is a 2.5" drive (usually more expensive), the other is a 3.5" inche drive (usually less expensive).

If you built computers, instead of pretending you do, you would know this :pachaha:

my days at the club are Tuesday, Friday and Saturday.

So that means days like today I can spend my time promoting and pointing out your obvious horrible posts :ufdup:

how does it feel that you'll be last in voting by a land slide :umad:

How does it feel to be not nominated at all? :umad:

I've never seen such a pathetic poster on the coli. You got a problem breh.

And nothing was wrong with my post at all. There are multiple differences between the harddrives. Can't you fukking read? :mindblown:

maybe I shoulda voted for myself and then I woulda got nominated ? :laff:

The first line you type, you said the hybrid is slower, then the second line you said the hybrid is faster :mindblown: horrible part #1

horrible part #2: Judging hard drive speeds solely based off RPM.

not all RPM are created equal. You're like the person who thinks speed of a car is 100% reliant on horse power. Both hard drives transfer at 6 gb/s :laff: The hybrid will save and load faster not just because of its RPM, but also because of the SSD technology built into it.

@daze23 answered @Mowgli question very easily, the difference in the price is because of the size of the physical size of the hard drive(among a few other things, but 2.5 drives are made more for laptops and less produced than 3.5 drives for desktop). Because it was the only correct answer. You tried to put your 2 cents in to keep proving you know what you are talking about, but like always just continue to make yourself look more like a dumbass.

Yeah, I corrected myself....in the exact same post. But I'm starting to see you can't read.

You're literally telling me a 5400 hdd is the same speed as a 7200? :dwillhuh:

How's the ssd caching gonna work in the ps4 without the software? :mindblown:

SOFTWARE FOR WHAT ? :mindblown:

bruh just get the fukk outta this thread :camby:

this is for your PS4 right ? The 3.5" drive wont even fit inside a ps4 .. you'll need get a HDD enclosure and it'll sit outside the PS4. She probably bought the more expensive one because the rep told her the cheaper one wont fit in the PS4, which is 100% correct. There are ways around that though, which is what the enclosure is for.

But im sure @Ciggavelli , someone who owns a PS4 , had this little info just skip his mind when typing out that dumb ass response he posted earlier
