I think the 750 gig drives are the one to get. I've heard that some of the 750 gig drives are faster than other 7200 RPM drives, not sure about all of them.

- pmjordan 19y agoApparently the fastest 7200rpm drives at the moment are the single-platter 250GB drives, as having one platter means the arm for the heads is much lighter than say a terabyte drive (4 platters) or a 750GB drive (3 platters) and can therefore home in on the appropriate drive track more quickly. Not useful if you need lots of storage though. 750GB drives are definitely the most value for money at the moment.
