Forgive me for my ignorance regarding Macs. I'm about to buy the Macbook Pro, which will be my first. However, I'm confused by the choice of hard drives.
Should I get the 100gb ata @ 7200rpm or the 120gb ata @5400rpm. Can someone please explain the upside and downside of each one to me. What's more important...bigger or faster? Do the 7200rpm cause it to overheat quickly.
I'm leaning towards the 7200 because 100gb seems like more than enough space.
Also, is it a bad idea to buy the Macbook right now? Should I wait? When is the best time to buy? What should I do? I would appreciate any and all advice. Thanks a lot.
