Does anyone have any data on how hard drive spin rate affects laptop battery life? I'm vacillating between a 5400 rpm drive, and a 7200 rpm drive. Thanks!

It will depend on the system, but on all of them, you are looking at less than 15 minutes, since the hard drive isn't the main power hog on the computer (That title goes to components like RAM, CPU, and GPU)
