    I am looking for a 1TB 2.5" HDD for my m11x. Then I stumbled upon this 1TB 7200rpm sata 6GB/s for about $200. I know normal 5400rpm 1Tb is like $90, but is this drive worth it do you think? I was earlier going for a 120gb SSD, but they are a bit too expensive and small for my needs. Not sure how this sata 6GB/s will improve speeds that much, but if it performs just a little over regular 7200rpm drives, then that's good enough for me.
