Both drives will work in your ps2.
I use the DiamondMax Plus 9 120GB drive with hdloader, its a great harddrive, ive had no problems with it so far.

Cheers mate,

Does the buffer size make any difference to performance when hooked up to the PS2?

Not really sure about buffer sizes, both my drives have an 8MB cache/buffer, dont really think buffer makes a difference to performance tho. but 7200rpm will load games faster than 4200rpm, if ya know what i mean =)

The buffer size is related to the rpm of the drive. Bigger buffer faster RPM. *mb buffer is 7200 rpm. Go for that.
