Amstrad hard disk upgrade

I just got an Amstrad Sky+ box installed last Friday, and have had no picture problems so far. Just now I took the lid off to have a quick look inside and saw it had a Seagate hard disk. I've always preferred Seagate's to Maxtors.

My question is has anybody upgraded an Amstrad box, and if so, which drive did you use? Did it go ok? What about heat issues?

I was thinking of going with a Maxtor like most people do but now its a Seagate I think I will get a barracuda 7200.7 120GB, my only worry is at 7200RPM it might run a little hot.

Any views/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
