5900 RPM, 16mb cache. Don't be put off by the 'slow' speed though, with the density of data on these massive platters rotational speed isn't a huge deal anymore. It can easily read enough to saturate the entire bus. The rotational speed used to matter significantly, but that was due to low data density on the platters. Think of it this way, if you have 1 million paper 1 dollar bills all lined up in a long row, you have to run extremely fast to get from one end to the other. Now take 1 million 1 dollar coins, line them up, and you don't need to run anywhere near as fast to reach the end in the same amount of time. Both are 1 million dollars, but the coins are smaller, so require less travel distance for the same amount.
