By the way is there anything else to think about like 7200rpm or 5400rpm, 2.5" or 3.5", IMB or Seagate or Western?

5400 is best because if you buy the 7200, it runs a lot hotter.  BTW, the original xbox hd is running at 5400rpm

oh, and any make is fine but the more you pay the better quality you get and thus the more reliable it is.  i.e. go for maxtor or w.d if possible not some cheap store made one. and regular idedrive is what you want - not a laptop one

Go with the 7200.  It's a bit faster.
