I am not sure which one to get:

OCZ Vertex 2E 120GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive:

I have also seen this HDD but it does not quite as fast but has more storage:

Seagate Momentus XT 500GB Hybrid SATA-II

I don't know what the difference between the Two OCZ SSD is except for their size. Any help or information will be really great.
 
Size & price is the only difference. The 3.5" is usually a bit cheaper but offers less flexibility (e.g. you can't put it in a laptop later on).
 
Get the bigfoot, cheaper.

If you want fast, get an SSD, if you want storage, get a mechanical. Those hybrids give you a little bit more speed, but if you can afford an SSD, then go for it!
 
SSD all the way. Get a green for mass storage or something a little faster if you need to store games etc.
