Hi guys,

I was going to order the 15 inch MBP with the 7200 HD, is it better to install a Seagate Momentus (faster?).

Hi guys,

Suggested scenerio (for the best posting results and increased entertainment value):
1. Buy the MBP with the 7,200 rpm HD upgrade, and a 3rd-party Seagate Momentus from one of the popular venders.
2. Open up the MBP (00 Philips head screwdriver and Torx #6 driver needed)
3. Get your cammera ready, pointed towards yourself
4. Remove the stock 7,200 HD and compare it with the 3rd-party Seagate Momentus.
5. Take a picture of your stunned expresion and post it here.😱
Next time, do your research before posting, the stock 7,200 HDs Apple's using these days are Seagate Momentus drives!🙄🙄
Sorry, but you really should search before posting.
There must be at least 10-20 posts where people have asked what drives Apple are using.

Unless he was referring to the Momentus XT drive?

Unless he was referring to the Momentus XT drive?

similarly, there are also >20 threads on the XT 🙂

if you want speed and can afford it, go for the XT!
