    2.5" 750 gb, 7200 RPM drives?

    anishannayya, thank you for your recommendations! My confidence is building in the XT 500GB since I do not have the option of 2 drive bays in my 13.3" laptop. How does the XT compare to the "loud" WD 750 in the noise and vibration departments?

    Many of the reviews on Newegg and Amazon mention that the Seagate Momentus XT 500GB is quite "noisy" and vibrates a lot. Have any of you noticed this? If so, does the increased performance make up for the increased noise?

    2.5" 750 gb, 7200 RPM drives?

    I just upgraded my laptop from a stock Toshiba 500GB 5400 RPM drive (MK5055GSX) to the Hitachi 7K500 and have not seen any noticeable performance increase. Therefore, I'm a hesitant to get Seagate's Hybrid 500XT drive. Anyone experience great performance gains with this drive?
