Answer:

7200 RPM magnetic HDD

Step-by-step explanation:

7200 RPM refers to the velocity of rotation of the disks in the drive.

Standard drives usually operate at either 5400 or 7200 RPM (revolutions per minute).

It really has no impact on performance, apart from the actual read and write speed of data can be slightly faster.
