Hard drive speed does make a difference!

So I have an iBook G4 with a SMALL 30 GB 4300 RPM drive and I
have upgraded to a 120 GB WD 5400 RPM drive and what a
difference, It is a little louder but it has made a noticeable
increase of responsiveness and speed to the machine and I like
it! Plus the amount of space that I have now! :)

If its louder, i suspect its the fan because the computer is
hot.You can look at the temperature using Speccy =)

Does Speccy have a mac version? And no its not the fan it is the
Hard drive, the drive was loud to begin with (left over from 3
year old HP laptop that I dont use) I have to much stuff laying
around for replacement or testing purpose I am running out of
room. ;D But Yeah it is just the drive, Western digital's have
always been loud for me. :)
