I'd say in *general* yes. Eclipse/WDSC went from about 45 seconds to open down to about 20 seconds. Opening large documents and files has improved, regardless of application doing the opening.

Of course after paying a few $$$ for the hard drive, I may be perceiving a benefit to justify the cost ;-)

Pete,

was that a marked improvement on all applications running on your PC, or
just WDSC?

I have a Gateway M450 (Pentium M 1.5 Ghz) that originally had 1Gb and I
upgraded to 2Gb and I saw no improvement in WDSC performance. However,
when I upgraded to a 7200RPM drive from 5400RPM drive I saw a marked
improvement.

As was mentioned elsewhere, Eclipse is I/O intensive so a FAST hard
drive is where to put your money.
