    Greetings again...
    I'm thinking to do some upgrades for my Toshiba X205 SLI3. I'm thinking to replace the two internal HDD that are usually shipped with the X205 SLI3 with two 7200 HDD drives. I just have some questions that I have in mind. I'd be so greatful for any help you can offer:
    1- I'm going to replace the two 5400 HDD drives with two 7200 drives, I want to get the very best choice that offer the maximum performance regarding video editing and hardcore games. No matter the cost is... I just would love to invest in up-to-date and best choice. so what brand and model do you suggest?
    2- Can I invest in SATA3?
    3- Can I install two HDDs in replace to the two that were originally in, or am I restricted only to one 7200 drive in replace to the wo 5400?
    4- will it give better performance with 7200 drives? and is it freeze or bug safe?
    5- I know that this final question has been asked a lot, but can you please explain to me or give me the link that describes how to do clean install of the windows vista OS without all those trash that Toshiba stuff the notebook with?

    thanks so much
