    Hard Drives are Hard Drives
    Hard Drives can be replaced with any generic hard drive that is equal to or larger in size.

    Example: 40 GB Fiery hard drive
    80 GB generic hard drive replacement


    This also applies to MFP's in the following brands:

    Konica Minolta
    Ricoh
    Kyocera

    We get ours from Tiger Direct.

    One thing I am curious about, that I have not experimented with, is the speed of the hard drive. For instance... A Savin 2527 use a 4200 RPM hard drive. I wonder what would happen if I placed a 5400 RPM drive in there. Bear in mind that I did not look at the specs of the 4200 RPM hard drive enough to see what the seek times and buffer were comparied to a 5400 RPM drive.

    Also, I just checked TD for the specs and it seems they are out of 4200 RPM drives. Has anyone put a 5400 RPM drive in one of these older animals?

    Oh yeah... We try to get all of our memory modules from Tiger Direct also.

    The first law states that energy is conserved: The change in the internal energy is equal to the amount added by heating minus the amount lost by doing work on the environment.
