Best aftermarket 7200rpm HD for MBP?

[bafonso]

my new laptop's coming with a 320gig. The only way I'll upgrade to 500 is if I find a dirt cheap drive. Otherwise, as everyone says, wait for cheaper ssds. I think by early 2011 we can buy affordable 256gig ssds.

haha that is a long time to wait when you can just enjoy increase in speeds and size now..and even then we won't know how much they will be etc.... but to each their own i guess.

go SSD if you're upgrading!

I've thought of going SSD, but it's probably not very worth putting it in my couple generation-old mbp.

For those of you who's using 7200RPM HD in your MBP, you guys noticed any change in wireless N speed after changing the HD? I've noticed my transmit rate goes up and down between 70mbps to 130mbps, changes every couple minutes or seconds.

Please post your transmit rate.
