The Basics

  • Hard Disk Drive: The spacious 80 GB (4,200 RPM) hard disk drive offers more than enough storage for both your work and home files, as well as a multimedia library.
  • Processor: The Intel Pentium 4 538 processor features a fast 3.20 GHz speed. It also offers Hyperthreading technology, which allows a single CPU system to behave in some aspects like a dual-CPU system. This results in more efficient software performance--such as faster reaction times in gaming applications--and enhanced multitasking. It is well suited for professional-quality image, audio, and video editing. It also has a 1 MB L2 cache and a 533 MHz front-side bus (FSB).
  • Memory: The Toshiba's 512 MB of built-in memory (1 DIMM, PC-2700 DDR333) is a good start for power users. It can be expanded to a total of 1.5 GB.
  • CD/DVD Drive: The DVD SuperMulti drive is compatible with both DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs, as well as DVD-ROM and DVD-RAM. It offers a 4x DVD read speed, and it writes at 2.4x for DVD+R/RW and 2x for DVD-R/RW. You can also burn CDs at 16x and read them at 24x.
  • Keyboard and Mouse: This laptop has a standard 85-key keyboard and an electrostatic two-button touchpad.
