Mine is a Segate Barracuda 7200.10 80GB (3.5" HDD with only 11,000 hours on it) that according to hard drive platter database has a 160GB platter (so it is short stroked to get the 80GB capacity).
This is being used with a Core 2 SFF Pre-built (E8400, 6GB DDR3 RAM, Winodws 10) that rarely gets used. When it does get used, the main task is web browsing and for this purpose it is actually acceptable. However, when doing anything else I do notice the slowness.
