Either is fast enough to keep up with mythtv so its up to you. Personally I
would go for the faster drive.
IMHO - MAxtor drives are junk. Have had to replace 2 already. Of course,
they were both covered under warrenty so its not a huge deal. I noticed both
times they upgraded me to a different drive so it might be model specific.
Mine were both 240gb drives from about a year ago.

I have a 4800rpm laptop drive on mine...it is a frontend though.
Server has 5400rpm disks because of price, power reqs. and cooling needs are smaller.
