The state of the art notebook size (2.5") fast drive is the IBM-Hitachi 60GB 7200 RPM (called Travelstar 7K60) at about $230; they make also a 80GB 5400 RPM (called 5K80) at about the same price, used in the Apple 17" PowerBooks; they also make the smaller iPod drives. I bought a 2.5" FW400 enclosure separately for cca $100. You can then also put your PB drive in the enclosure and the 7K60 in your PB, if speed is critical.

Good Luck,

Adrian
