I have been shopping around for a 100GB - 120GB hard drive for my macbook. Right now I have the stock 60GB. I was curious if anyone knew the difference between the Seagate Barracuda, and the Seagate Momentus. I know one is 7200RPM vs. 5400RPM, but the one that is faster costs less, so I am kind of confused. Is this because it will slow the rest of my system down? Will 7200RPM even work in my macbook?
 
without links i'm not sure what the difference is, but are they both SATA?

Yea they are both SATA. I figured out the difference.. one is 3.5" and the other 2.5" that explains the price difference. Oops.
