Well I know that samsung hard disks are manufactured my toshiba and have seen a few samsung stickers inside my toshiba laptop.

A T8400 will have teh same clock speed as the desktop model but a lower FSB and cache.

So basically, no the desktop version is better, but facter in EVERY laptop uses laptop parts, so chances are your going to get 1 with the same bus/cache anwyay.
