What kind of processor does this drive require?

the processor on my computer is 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5 and it works great. I'm not sure if anything different then that would make a difference.

There're no specific processor requirements for using the drive.You may need a decent CPU/Video card for watching blu-ray movies though.

For this technical question I would go to www.seagate.com, and look at the technical specification chart for ST1000DX001 drive.

Typical you would want a Western Digital purple drive. You can try this drive. It should work tho.

i only see 320 mentioned, but you can shop dell.com and configure one specifically - I just bought studio 15 with 500gb/7200 rpm hard drive

Its a dual core, i7, 1.9GHZ/3.0GHZ, with 256gb ssd. No hard drive. It is plenty fast and has all the storage I'll need. Up and running in under 10 sec.

Not sure if they use the 3.5 or2.5 laptop drives. Try the SSD tho. They work great..

This is a SATA drive and your system uses IDE, I would suggest buying a SATA to IDE adapter

By the way look at the user manual that is available online so you can verify if is compatible with the processor you want

You should be fine I have two in my system with 5 hdd and blue-ray drive and an i7 CPU running 750 and it runs great!

Yes, any SATA drive will work. If you want a detailed list of the tested drives go to the MSI website and look for the MoBo model. You can check at tested compatible CPUs, Memory, HDD, etc

No idea but Google around. I see lots of comments about SSD and RAID setups on the net. Good luck!

No, this is SATA; IDE is defunct. You can use that old drive as a paper weight. Also get a Solid State Drive and enjoy about 10x improvement in hard drive speed. SSDs are worth every penny.

No, it is a bare drive. I used a usb2IDE appliance and Clonezilla, a free OpenSource download.
