Helping a friend out, he has a mid-2006 MB and his hard drive just died.
Can we put a 7200 rpm in that? Macsales live chat tells me: "Your computer was built to handle all HD Speeds and the heat generated from it", but I'm not sure that is someone who really works hands on there or who is reading from a script. I had read some reports that a 7200rpm drive would decrease battery life and cause the machine to run a bit hotter.
He doesn't NEED 7200rpm but I always like to boost speed if possible.
Thanks!
Diane
