I'm sure you have gotten the point on performance by now. If you would like to see an example of the speed difference, and have access to such parts, install a 7200RPM+ drive with an OS, and then install a 5400RPM for storage. create and delete a file from the 5400 drive, you may not notice a difference... but watch what happens when you try to empty your recyling bin... did you stall yet? yes, i've had my computer stall for as much as 2-3min depending on the size of the files being deleted. This is a minor example, but it very quickly shows the performance boost on the faster drives.
