[QUOTE="aerogramma, post: 948323, member: 132666"] Hi, I'm thinking of upgrading my white MacBook (2Ghz Core Duo) internal HD to a 320Gb 7200 rpm one... for faster overall performance My only doubt is that since the laptop gets already quite hot, the faster spinning drive will make things worse Don't want to end up with a laptop where the fan is always on at full speed (too much noise for me) Anyone has tried similar upgrades and can share impressions? all the best from here val :Smirk: [/QUOTE]
