I have a new 17" 2.2 with a 128gb ssd. i want to replace the optical drive with an internal hard drive but i want the fastest one and decent amount (250gb or more) or storage, without being an ssd. i have heard of 10,000 rpm - 15,000 rpm hard drives.. will those work? i can figure out how to do it (by using other threads and youtube and common sense)... im just asking for someone to point me in the right direction. something above 200gb.

also.. by doing this i can use it to install windows on right? and just put my games (not very many) on this plus stuff like my music and pictures (videos are on an external)
