What internal Hard-drives are you using?

I'm thinking about upgrading it. Any suggestions, experiences?

I've upgraded every HD in every apple laptop I've owned except the new one, and with the new one only because it came with the 7200rpm drive.

I've become a Seagate snob. I'm sure somebody has had problems with them in the past, but the fact is they outscore everybody else in reliability tests.

Standard 120GB Fujitsu 5400rpm drive here. (Black macbook).

I'll be putting in a Seagate 160GB 7200rpm when they become available.

Fujitsu are also apparently releasing a 160GB 7200RPM, but not till May?

Any dates on that badboy Seagate?

Who knows of a good hard drive cloner for when I switch? Any freeware?

I don't have that info. The 5400rpm version has only just become widely available here in the UK.

I put in my macbook an Hitachi Travelstar Sata 7200 rpm 100 gb.
I'm very satisfied with this.
