Alright so I decided on a Macbook pro for college and I have one question about the hard drives. I would like your genius brains to give me an opinion on which one is best (price isnt really an issue)


Option 1: 200 Gb Serial ATA drive at 5400 rpm


Option 2: 250 Gb Serial ATA drive at 5400 rpm


Option 3: 200 Gb Serial ATA drive at 7200 rpm





just as a side note i will be investing into an external hard drive in the near future to.





Thank You Very Much

The best is what ever suits YOU best.



If you want my opinion on which to choose (whether best or not is debatable), then I would say the 250 GB 5400 rpm drive. You will likely gain more benefit from the additional space than from the faster spin rate for the 200 GB 7200 rpm drive. I have a 250 GB 5400 rpm drive...upgraded it myself about a year ago.
