Everything Apple (the Mac heads thread)

it doesn't take much to swap the drives out, if you are going to do that then why not fit a hybrid drive (seagate momentusXT) or SSD? 7200 drives don't offer that much advantage.

a 2.53-2.66 macbookpro is not exactly slow especially if you max the ram to 8gb

5500rpm is impossible to to use if you're running numerous stems of audio.

I have a 7200rpm in my current mac book which I swapped out myself, it would just be nice to have it as a base spec rather than having to upgrade it after the initial outlay.
