hey guys and gals.
Just installed a seagate momentus 750gb 7200rpm drive.. replacing my 320gb 5400rpm drive.
I restored via time machine (didn't do a clean install, just went right to the restore option after formatting the drive in disc utility).. restore took about 3 hours I'd say..
I did notice 2 things.. does it take a bit for the computer to feel "snappier"?.. i know that I didn't install an SSD.. but does the new drive need time to "catch up"?
also.. does anyone know how much of an impact this may have on my battery from the 5400 to 7200rpm drive?
thanks!
