    Hi folks,

    I have a Sony Vaio S5M laptop which is same as 5XX Serie in US. I like this laptop much but my only problem is the right palm side because of the SATA hdd (Heat Problem). Allthough it is considerable, i am planning to change the hdd of laptop in the long run. It is installed a 80GB Fijitsu MHV2080BH hdd and I want to hear your comments for a colder hdd? Some of my friends says Samsung is better? I would be very glad if you could share your opinions and experiences.

    Thank you,

    Bugrahan

    Samsung has good hard drive, but I think seagate has better one.

    I heard that seagate hard is really quiet.
