Gaming laptops

Could anybody tell me where I can get a 7200rpm hardrive for the new ASUS G2S. I bought it and would like to boost my performance. This is where I got it. There is a cool review on there with lots of pictures too.

I'm pretty impressed with the grafics when playing games like STALKER, BF2 and EVE but the starting times of the laptop and loading times of the games are awfull. I get the impression everytime it needs info from the HDD it takes forever. (wish raid 0 on laptops were possible)

I looked around but got the impression the 7200rpm notebook hardrives are pretty rare. The only thing I found was a site that said it was in the making. Just a note... I'm looking for one available in europe.

Can you purchase from the UK? I'm having trouble finding tech site in Europe. I found 2 on scan.co.uk, but I don't know if it'll be of any use to you. If these don't work, please list some other tech sites in Europe and I'll help you search.

Could you direct me to a good website for changing RAID config to 0 on laptops, Im having trouble finding.

Well it would depend on the BIOS. For that you'd also have to blow out the original install and re-install the OS. Some ship in RAID-0, but you'll have to check the BIOS support, and there may be instruction in the User Manual.

Do you ever have time to play games, or do you spend all of your time answering our questions. 😀

Sure, but I'm usually in here while doing something else, work, or like right now I'm eating and watching the news followed by Daily Show (aka the Real News 😗 ).

Is there any REAL difference in gaming performance with 512 7900 GTX versus 512 7950 GTX?
