I see in the New Egg adds lately deals on 3.5" 5400 rpm consumer class new hard drives. Who would buy a 5400 rpm hard drive when the 7200 rpm versions are almost the same price? Makes no sense to me that these hard drive companies continue to manufacture those slower drives when in the desktop hard drive sector we have had 7200 rpm drives for many years now.
