As you have a Powerbook, why not make sure you get a drive WITHOUT a fan (whirrrrrr.) The Lacie Mobile drives are excellent, just make sure to get a 7,200 rpm model.

And ... why bother partitioning a drive now that storage is so cheap? There's no speed advantage, and you are only limiting your options in the future.
