I have a 2 1/2 year old 13" Macbook (aluminum unibody) 2.0Gz, 320GB HD, 2GB ram. It's starting to slow down and needs more HD space.
Hard Drive questions: Thinking of a 500 or 750 GB HD. I think it will support 7200rpm. Would I see much benefit from this vs. 5400rpm?
RAM questions: I believe with the right boot ROM version it will support up to 8 GB of RAM. I sometimes work with imovie, mainly with pictures and music but sometimes video. Otherwise not a lot of memory intensive apps. Would I see much benefit from 8GB vs. 4GB?
Also, I would like to move some programs that I no longer have install discs for to new HD once installed. What's the best/easiest method?
I'd appreciate any advice and any other considerations I may need to think of.
Thanks
