i recommend the 5400rpm 2mb cache hdd's. That is all the xbox really uses. Whichever one generates less heat you'd want.

well normally I wouldn't say that, but the xbox doesn't take advantage over the extra specs. The 7200 will however run quieter, but may generate more heat.

I got a 7200 and I just added a 80mm fan and a small fan under the hdd. Now my hdd doesnt get any hotter than 90 F. Eventually Im gonna replace the compound under the heatsinks too.
