New 13" MacBook Pro Hard drive

[Habitus]

Does anyone know how to change the internal hard drive in the new 13" MacBook Pros? I have a 500GB hard drive I was using in my black MacBook and does anyone know if I can still use this hard drive in the new MacBook Pros?

yes you can, ifixit.com is taking apart the 13" MBP right now.

Undo a few screws, pop off the back cover and swap out the drives

I was just wondering about this.. Even though you can do it yourself still is it still considered a user replaceable part or is this going to drum up the old "will this void my warranty" discussions?

Do you know the link to the ifixit page?

Awesome, this is exactly what I need to know and do when I get mine!

For those who can't find it on their website....

How much performance gain will I see going from the 250 GB 5400 rpm stock drive to a 500 GB 7200 RPM seagate drive?
