I dont think you will but since they are around the same price it shouldnt matter

Thanks for the help, now to find a good one, i checked the compatability chart and there are so many, any brand you reccomend, im looking for a 120gb, and one that is real quite. a friend had a WD caviar and that thing made alot of noise, not when accessing but when it was on(sounds like a loud pc case fan)
