    Hitachi makes drives in both speeds. It's safe to assume it's 4200 though unl3ss specified by the manufacturer, which in the eMachines case it is not.

    If you go into hardware manager you can see the drive model number. You can either post it here and I will tell you or you can type the number in yahoo or google and you will be able to find it.
