I'm about to jump and purchase my first MBP and like many people, I hesitate between more space (320Gb/5400) or faster disk (200Gb/7200)
Until recently, I would always have said: max out the ram, get the 7200 disk...
But the conclusion of a recent Tom's hardware makes me wonder if indeed the recent 320gb hard disk have not caught up with the 7200rpm disks ?
"All three [320Gb] drives are great performers and will only give you reason to complain if you purchased a 7,200 RPM hard drive, because these almost seem obsolete with availability of the latest 5,400 RPM generation......"
Any feedback with *recent* disks welcome.
Thx
Ralph
