will this do the job nicely and quickly?
yes
are there any larger versions that will fit, or would i be better off with a 320gb one in regards to heat / fit etc
you can wait a while and pick up a Segeate Momentus 500gb 7200rpm. I doubt it will run much hotter, and it will fit exactly the same.

I figured I'd at least be helpful before I tell you that the search function works well 😀
 
That's the same one I ordered last Thursday from dabs for my 09 mini. Just waiting for it to be delivered, hopefully tomorrow 😀😀
 
Higher capacity at equal RPM = faster. Go for the Seagate 7200.4 500 GB. It's really not that expensive and is state of the art.

I agree and am trying to buy one but I cannot find anywhere with one in stock in the UK! 😡
