there is no definitv rule for that ... there are a lot people swear at
the IBM and
another lot who swear to the Seagate ... the only thing I could say is
that the
newer 7200rpm mostly consume more power than the 5200rpm drives ... if
the IBM 7200rpm
drive consumes less power than a Seaget with 5200rpm, you might choose the
faster 7200rpm ... but all in all its playing with numbers ... there is NO
guarantee at all ... But all in all the Seagate might be a good choice !
