I keep running out of disk on my stock 30 GB HD in my iBook G4 1.2 GHz Combo. I was looking at MCETech's HD/SuperDrive upgrade. It is steep and I was looking for any happy/unhappy fellow MacNN users input. I know it would probably void my AppleCare, or at least those two parts would not be covered.

While on the subject, they are showing 5400 rpm drives, is the iBook to slow to handle 7200?
