Professional C3
The Professional M3 enables the freedom of mobility and enhanced productivity with an 8MB cache, 100MB, 5400 RPM high-performance hard drive that zips through large audio projects on ProTools, Cubase, SONAR and other demanding music applications. You will experience almost 50 percent more performance compared to the zillions of notebooks on the market with 4200 RPM drives, but low power consumption enables users to work longer unplugged.
However, the most notable feature of the M3 storage characteristic is the quietness. Part of the secret lies in our choice of hard drives. The 100GB 5400 RPM model in the M3 is a very quiet and very robust beast rated to take a beating and to keep on seeking.
