Hi All,
So i'm about to buy a new internal, but someone told me to check on the power consumption of the drive before i buy it, as i had been undecided about which one because of their speeds - 5200 or 7200.
This guy said that some 7200rpms use a lot more power than others and that it is worth checking that out before you buy one.
I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on what i should be looking for - what constitutes a good power consumption??? Can anyone recommend any that don't eat a lot of battery?
I'm after a 750 or 1TB internal drive for my MBP 15" mid 2010.
Thanks in advance for any help and advice.
Tom
