being put into the newest Powerbooks would be a good choice. They only spin
at 4200 rpm, but because they have much higher density platters they are at
least as fast as the Deskstars (the ones with 2 meg buffer memory, not the
40 gig 8 meg buffer drives).

Also, they are much quieter, draw much less power and run much cooler. I am
not sure of the price compared to the Deskstars, but if they are around the
same price or less, you should probably add it to your list to consider.
