I have the opportunity to grab one of Fuji's fluid bearing drives much cheaper than the IBM version. I have used IBM for the last few years and have not read much about the Fujis.

All specs. being the same, any real differences I should know about?

www.barefeats.com tested both and found the Travelstar to be faster, though they found the Fujistu plenty fast.
