    I chose the storage over speed. Besides 60G at 5400 RPM (in terms of
    raw data rate) is almost as fast as 40G at 7200 RPM. Either way, this
    is pretty slow compared to the 120G and larger drives in desktops.

    I've been wondering if it's a revision thing. Maybe newer D800's have
    the better chip. Maybe the power profile of the 'M' chip is "better"
    ...

    Dave.
