    I'm not sure either will display a noticeable difference in speed while using your computer. Go with the cheaper one as either manufacture (Seagate, Hitachi) are good manufactures for notebook drives. Seagate's have a longer warranty as well (5 year vs 3 year), so that may factor into your purchase.
