Hi all. I'm looking for a 2.5" Seagate Momentus hard drive in 7200 RPM and 120 GB. This is for a PowerBook G4 (1.5 GHz, 15"). I know that Seagate makes this drive in this configuration, but I've been unable to find it from a reputable online retailer. Can anyone help? Thanks!

While Seagate lists 7200RPM 120 and 160G drives in their literature, they're not actually available retail yet.

I see. Is the 100 GB 7200 RPM drive just as good? Seems like I read something on here saying that the 120 GB drives were going to be better in some way.

I went ahead and bought one of the 100 GB drives from OWC. First one was a dud, second one works like a charm!
