Does using a faster RPM harddrive on laptop drains battery faster?

I'm thinking of upgrading the harddrive on an older laptop? If I replace a 5400 rpm harddrive with a 7200 rpm one does it drain the laptop battery faster?
Thanks for any help.
 
You'll have to look at the specs for each drive, the 7200 RPM may actually use less power than the 5400RPM drive.
