Whats the best hard drive for macbook pro 13 inch?

[MrPeanut]

i currently have the 250 GB 5400 hd in my macbook pro 13 inch but i need more space. What is the best hard drive to get and is there a 1TB HDD for laptops yet?

SSDs are fastest but have lower capacity and cost more. Biggest HD available which goes into MBP is 750GB

I would suggest this one, http://laptoplogic.com/news/western-digital-releases-new-2.5--640gb-hdds-49676

And an external 1Tb 3.5" HD that stays at home.

personally i would love the 640GB linked to by Buskape but could not go back to the slower 5400RPM's or 8MB Cache

here is a 500GB 7200RPM w/16MB Cache and free shipping 🙂

i choose to go with the WD Black 320GB 7200RPM because it continues to get rave reviews and i have several of these and they run great.

The best HD in terms of speed is the Intel X25-M.

Trick question, ehh? Gotta be the one that works!😛



No 1TB 2.5" drives yet but if you forego the optical, you can do an optibay kind of thing with multiple drives.

Thanks, not for the info, but for the reminder about Larry being back in 6 days 🙂
