So I have a MBP 3.1 which is a pre-unibody and I want to upgrade the hd. It's not something I've done before or have any experience with so I guess the first thing to ask is which is the right drive to buy I need the following...

- 500gb +
- 7200 RPM or faster
- 16mb cache (possible?)
- Faster the better
- Only looking for internal cause externals makes life much more heavier on the road... :D

Also where can I buy? I know about newegg and amazon.

Thanks!
 
I bought the WD Scorpio Blue 500 GB 5400 from Amazon
Reviews compare it favorably to the 7200's

It is quiet, cool and fast
I highly recommend it
