For hard drives, mine arrived with Toshiba DT drives at 7200rpm. They work exceptionally well and are slightly faster in my tests than other drives at the same rating.

Thank you for contacting us. I am not sure so I looked at other posts about this. It seems they are very close in performance but this stood out: "The other thing to keep in mind when choosing a drive is that Western Digital?s enterprise drives are meant to be constantly in use, 24/7. The consumer drives are rated for 300,000 load/unload cycles, whereas the enterprise drives are are rated for double that at 600,000 load/unload cycles. This means the enterprise drive is guaranteed to have a longer use-life than a consumer drive under identical conditions." Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

I bought these: Seagate Momentus 7200 750 GB 7200RPM SATA 3Gb/s 16 MB Cache 2.5 Inch Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive ST9750420ASThey're fast and work great so far after daily abuse with external Final Cut Pro, Aperture, Photoshop, and iTunes libraries. Connected via Thunderbolt it seems just as fast as an internal drive. At the time, earlier in 2013, these were the biggest, fastest drives available. There are bigger drives now with larger caches.

Its a dual core, i7, 1.9GHZ/3.0GHZ, with 256gb ssd. No hard drive. It is plenty fast and has all the storage I'll need. Up and running in under 10 sec.

Thank you for the info, I'll take a look. By the way would you recommend a 1tb 5400rpm or a 750gb 7200rpm? Is the speed trade-off worth the space trade off? thank you

I use both WD and Seagate for storage - I have a Blue Face WD10 EARS model, I've had that for about 7 years, I abuse it daily. On my other system, I bought a low-speed (5400 rpm?) Seagate ST1000DL - Which got some nasty reviews on Amazon - But I've had that for 2 years and no trouble, it's only for storage so I don't need the speed. I don't have any SATA3 HDD's at all, I don't have any motherboards that support it. I'll have to get an Add-on Card

I'll be honest, I am a fan boy of Western Digital, and ASUS btw, but they don't make HD's. In the last few years, I've had more Seagate drives fail on me, than Western Digital. That being said, I am also hard on HD's, and being in Oklahoma, my PC runs real warm through half the year. I would def. go with the Blue WDEZEX for my money.

Hi it's a bit confusing, and hard to figure out who you are ordering from on these drives. Did not buy mine from Oceanside. Might want to look at similar drives from Fry's. They have the full warranty.

In General -- Google Apple Macbook Pro 13 -- Check what it has for Hard Drive -- Seagate Laptop Thin 500GB 7200RPM SATA 6 GB/s 32 MB Cache 2.5 Inch Hard Disk Drive (ST500LM021) -- this is roughly your hd specs. The 2.5 in is all laptops -- Chances are good that the interface is SATA -- But check. If it is, you should be good.

The speed is 1.7Ghz ... the ram is 4Gb and the hard drive is 750Gb... is enough...
