D1 is 'easier' but if you have a good grounding in mechanics m1 is very simple.

Depends on the person. I got 100 on M1 and 70 on D1 but some of my friends had the reverse, just depends how you think, but if you've never seen the topics before D1 is easier.

If you did physics last year, M1 should be a doddle!

I'm typing this as I'm revising for a D1 mock, I find very easy. If you program, it means you like algorithms and D1 is exactly that.
Have you done S1/S2? I find it similar in a way, both rely on notation and sequence logic a lot.

In D1, you only really use a calculator to plug in numbers and compute.

In M1, it is very much the same thing, but just more involved.

I don't think a graphical calculator will give you an advantage in any of these two modules.
