As with previous models, the E6400 is made of magnesium alloy to reduce weight, but increases durability. What is impressive is that Dell has outlined the 'vulnerable' areas (Strikezones) to increase protection against falling laptop.

The Latitude E6400 has a 14.1-inch screen, has a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels - can be upgraded to a screen with LED backlight with a resolution of 1,440 x 900 pixels showing brighter, sharper images.

Hard drives can also be replaced by 64GB SSD disks, with faster download speeds, less power consumption and more durable than traditional hard drives.

In terms of security, Dell has a fingerprint sensor, TPM chip and both a SmartCard card slot and even supports a wireless SmartCard card. The special thing is, the E6400 also uses ControlVault technology to enhance security. Like the TPM chip, ControlVault stores sensitive encryption keys in hardware. While the TPM chip requires users to install the software to use, ControlVault saves the program always in the BIOS. Therefore, attacks on the system will not affect ControlVault's security capabilities.
