However, I would like to address two shortcomings that have not yet been mentioned:
On the one hand is the battery, at least in my book, loosely hung. This falls to only when you operate the notebook on your legs because the notebook is on the table on small feet and the battery is not in contact with the table top. On the legs, but the notebook is on more in the middle and there when putting a yielding of the batteries can be felt. My battery is securely latched, because it seems so to be some tolerance, as amended. Contact problems there is thus but no, so do not mind.
The only thing that really bothered me so far on the laptop is the Power Save mode, the hard drive. The 640GB come from Western Digital, the exact name is "WD6400BEVT". Certainly makes the hard drive very good service, if it is all addressed. Unfortunately, the panel is set at the factory so that your read / write head of inactivity already all 4s moves (!) In a parking position. This manifests itself in part to an audible, annoying permanent clack, on the other hand that completely freezes when restarting the drive of the computer for a brief moment. The example is annoying in word processing, as at start-up of the hard drive for approximately 5 seconds increase the text entry and you have to interrupt. As this happens then about twice per minute, this really is an impairment of the pleasant work.
There is a workaround to this problem Luckily: A small text-based tool called "hdparm". If you start this with administrator rights and then "hdparm -B 254 hda" inputs (assuming the hard drive is the first disk included), the Power Save mode is reduced to a minimum. In the reviews of the hard disk itself, there are any other comments about the issue (Western Digital WD6400BEVT Scorpio Blue 640GB internal hard drive).
