Re: I am Looking for the Biggest Laptop hard drive...
At the moment several manufacturers offer 320GB. These are standard size (3/8" / 9.5mm thick) and are easily available. A 500GB 2.5" HDD is due from Hitachi in the near future but it remains to be seen how soon it reaches the retail chain. However, it is 1/2" / 12.7mm thick so it will not fit many notebooks. Samsung have promised a 500GB 3/8" thick HDD for mid year, but there's no additional info.

Right now the highest HD capacities are the 320GB 5400RPMs, but that will change in the near future.

Re: I am Looking for the Biggest Laptop hard drive...
I just use 2 x 200GB 7200rpm HDD's in RAID 0.
I believe 200GB is the biggest you can get with a spindle speed of 7200rpm. Any higher and the spindle speed will drop to 5400rpm.
