Notebook Drive Speed Comparision

[lelliott731]

Does anyone know where I could find data about the current 60GB 7200rpm notebook hard drives and the 100GB 5400rpm drives? I want to see how much of a speed increase there really is between the 5400rpm and 7200rpm notebook drives.

Storage Review is due to release its first notebook drive comparison. They claim to have all the major players represented, so you might want to watch that site for its arrival.
