[QUOTE="moss918, post: 352956, member: 23473"] I have the 5400 in my Macbook and it is fine. Obviously we all want things to run faster but I've never been bothered by the speed of the drive. If battery life isn't an issue then just go for the 7200, you're only losing 20gig and if you're mostly plugged in at home then you can always get an external. It's definitely a shame they're not user-serviceable, I'm upgrading to a 160 5400 soon and am very glad it's such an easy job on the Macbooks. [/QUOTE]
