MacBook Pro HDD

[stormbreaker]

I am looking to get the high end MacBook Pro in a couple of weeks time.

2.2Ghz
8GB RAM
Hi-res glossy screen

The question is, do I go for a 5400rpm, 7200rpm or SSD drive? If SSD, I would need the 512GB.

So save my money, and just stick with the 750GB 5400rpm?

Apart from the quicker boot up time, what other advantages are there of SSD?


Andy, may I ask what you do on your MacBook Pro which that makes you think there will be a big difference between 5400 and 7200rpm?

Thanks.
