Hard Drives: Will my macbook take a 7200 RPM, 3.0 Gb/s drive?
Well, I'm thinking on upgrading my hard drive in my MacBook to something like this one:

But I was wondering if my MacBook can handle it. I'm sure it would be able to take advantage of the faster 7200rpm drive (vs the 5400 in their now) but what I am really wondering is if it will read the 3.0 GB/s SATA, or if it will only read as fast as the older, 1.5 GB/s drives.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott
