I just bought a new Seagate Momentum XT drive for my laptop:
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/products/laptops/laptop-hdd

and so far, I am very impressed with its performance. It lives up to the marketing claims. On my old Seagate 7200 rpm drive, my Windows XP took a couple of minutes to boot up.

After imaging it over to the Momentum XT drive, it now boots up (and the drive acquiesces) within 30 seconds.

Are any of you else using these drives?
