I haven't over clocked, yet. My WEI is 7.7 everything at stock/vanilla. I thought I could get 7.9 for sure
Here's mine.
Not too shabby, for a laptop.....
A lot of laptops in the past and the low end models today have 5400RPM hard drives.
I have noticed 5400RPM models will often give you a 4.9 on the hard drive WEI score.
So it depends on the RPM and other factors but I have noticed 4.9, 5.4, 5.9 WEI scores are common on laptop spinner hard drives.
My 7,200 RPM Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB in my desktop gets a 5.9, and it was my understanding that this was one of the fasted spinners. Then I just got a laptop with a 500GB spinner that runs at 5,400, and it also gets a 5.9....so I don't know what to believe anymore....lol.
