WD Scorpio Black would be your best bet. Can pick one up for around 30-40quid depending on where you go.

Yeh woops was looking at the 320Gb model. although I think it was on special somewhere couple weeks ago cos I picked up 2 for around the 40quid mark.

Chad, I think you can fit bigger HDDs inside the Revo... but if you are after a WD I have a the 500gb WD500BEVT which will be sold if I can get a 1tb drive inside a Revo.. have you opened yours to check?

Do the Scorpio Black's perform as well as 3.5" older models such as Samsung F1 320GB?

I thought these models were faster than the 2.5 WD blacks?

I believe they're about the same, if not a little slower. The ones you might be thinking of are the MomentusXT ones (the ones which are basically hybrid drives with a small SSD).

I have a WD Black 500gb in my system and am very happy with the speed of it and touch wood has been very reliable too unlike my old seagate.
