Hi I want to upgrade my macbook to 250gb. at the moment I'm looking at the Western Digital Scorpio and a 250gb toshiba model.

Does anyone know if any brand is better than the other, eg in noise, heat etc

Thanks.

i am looking myself for my MBPro (a 320gb), i found out there is much more buyers and positive reviews for Western Digital @ newegg.

Just bought a 250GB WD from OWC, for my :apple:tv. It's as quiet as my other drives (160 Seagate, for instance).

The SATA version is a few bucks cheaper.
