If it's an old drive or one that came with the laptop chances are it' only has 2MB of cache. HDD are the biggest bottlenecks on PCs and even more so on laptops. You may want to change the HDD if you plan on working with big files, but since you specified that it won't be for heavy duty stuff your current one will do.

The graphics won't switch I'm pretty sure. Your buddy probably juts got a different integrated chip. that's how laptops work...they just solder a chip onto the mobo and tada, a GPU.
