Recommendations, myisam-innodb

I have a program that listens to ippackets and reads out and stores an ip address, two mac addresses and one timestamp. I also have a packetID.
I am using Java 6 and the latest JDBCdriver with the latest stable Mysql.
My first approach was to just make one table with all the information. The results were very fast writes, but of course, extremly much redundant information. So I drew an ER diagram and made a much better relational model with 4 entities, holding each its only field as a key. I made a last entity holding the packetid as a primary key and the rest of the info came from the others as foreign key. Good. no redundant information.
Now I had to have one preparedstatement (i use these bequase i reuse the same questions alot, and i dont need to close the stmts with this) for each of entities, rendering me 5 calls to the database with jdbc instead of just 1. This slows it down, and speed in this program is really crucial.
Now for the question.
Should I change to the InnoDB engine (i'm using MyIsam) and make all foreign keys as on update cascade, thus I only have to do the single insert in the big table, and all the others will automaticly be filled, or will the InnoDB engine slow it down so it wont make up for it? Space - is also crucial, but speed is no 1.
Other factors I should think about?
I hope anyone has an answer.
Thanks

I think you should go back to the one table model.
You don't have redundant data (it doesn't appear). If you were storing extra data like a hostname as well as IP well then the hostname is redundant (sort of).
I mean you sort of have two keys. One is the packet ID and the second is the combination of the rest of the fields.
I'd vote for going back to the one table model.
If you proceed with multiple tables you are going to have this performance issue. No matter how it happens you need multiple inserts. That's expensive. Particularly key inserts.
To answer your question as it stands I don't se that changing to InnoDB would help. It very well might make things worse.
The only suggestion I can make if you do stick with the multiple table model is to start dropping keys/indexes. Indexes/keys are relatively expensive for insert operations
If your adding of information happens in batches then you can drop the keys, do your inserts and re-add the keys.
Actually dropping the keys maybe something you want to consider anyway. If you are doing alot of inserts, particularly in sort of a batch mode it will be better to drop the keys and recreate after the batch for two reasons.
1) It will make the inserts faster
2) The rebuilt keys will be optimized anyway. So will make for faster selects.

  • Once again:  Does MySQL allow multiple querys in one database transaction???

    Hello to ALL!!!
    The problem is:
    I'm trying to make simple query (database: "myDB" (engine:
    myisam/innodb - doesn't mater) with one table: "Info" with two
    columns: "Id" (autoinc), "info_c" (varchar):
    <cfif structkeyexists (form, "name")>
    <cfquery datasource="myDB" name="qDB" >
    INSERT into Info (info_c)
    VALUES ('#form.name#');
    SELECT @@identity AS Id
    </cfquery>
    </cfif>
    <cfform>
    <cfinput type="text" name="name">
    <cfinput type="submit" name="submit">
    </cfform>
    BUT after "Submit" I get:

    You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
    corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
    use near '; select @@identity as Id' at line 2
    Please, tell me WHY???

    Great THANKS for your answers!!!

    > SELECT @@identity AS Id
    AFAIK, MySQL uses LAST_INSERT_ID(). @@IDENTITY is MS SQL
    specific. Though SCOPE_IDENITY() is recommended over @@IDENTITY.
    What version of CF are you using? ColdFusion supports the
    "result" attribute, which will return the ID value for simple
    inserts. See the documentation for details

    For security purposes this is disabled by default. To enable
    it you must modify your datasource url

  • Search text for keywords - innodb table

    I have a longtext column in a table that I need to search
    through for keywords. The table is in innodb format. I dont want to
    change it to myisam because I can't afford to have it lock at the
    table level... I prefer the row level of innodb.
    How can I build a search around this? It would be nice to
    have all words, any words, and exact phrase as an option, as seen
    in tom mucks extension (which i own)... however, this recordset has
    so many arrays, it's completely hand coded and they extension isn't
    suppose to work with anything but default recordsets.
    Any suggestions? How can I have a more comprehensive search
    using a innodb table?

    tom mucks extension lets you use keywords 3 ways... all
    words, any words, and exact phrase.

  • Solaris Coolstack 1.3.1 Innodb engine not working

    Last night I spent about 7 hours at my collocation facility setting up the server.

All of the tables in the Database are MyISAM and I can't convert them to Innodb because phpmyadmin says the engine doesn't exist. Any Suggestions? I hope I was specific enough.

    Have you tried connecting via your database enterprise manager if available? Can you tnsping or connect via SQLPLUS to your database?

  • MySQL InnoDB performance tuning

    Hi,
    We recently updated our Solaris 10 (Sparc) patch level. It is from:
    Solaris 10 8/07 s10s_u4wos_12b SPARC
    Patch level 137111-05
    to
    Solaris 10 10/09 s10s_u8wos_08a SPARC
    Patch level 144488-14
    We have two functions in MySQL uses InnoDB. In the old version of Solaris 10 (8/07), one function takes less than 1 sec to finish execute.
    However in the newer version of Solaris 10 (10/09). It takes about 40 secs to finish execute.
    So, we found one solution in google that said to change the innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit to 0 instead of default 1, then the function take only about 0.41 sec to finish execute.
    So does anyone know what did the newer version of Solaris (update 8) has changed that I need to change this innodb_flush_log_at_commit to make better performance b/c the older version of Solaris the mysql innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit still 1 and peformance is less than 1 secs.
    Thanks!

    No one can tell you how to tune your database because there are too many variables that are specific to your installation.
    Some of the major factors hinge on the size of your database tables, both in terms of number of rows and the type of data within them. Then there's questions of whether you're using InnoDB or MyISAM, the cacheability of the data, the ratio of reads to writes, the size of each record, etc., etc., etc.
    Tuning paramaters for a 4 TB database with 20,000,000 rows are going to be radically different than those for a 100MB database with 10,000 rows.
    Then, of course, there are factors that aren't in my.cnf anyway - things like table indexes, data formats, query structure, etc.
    The same query can take radically different amounts of time depending on the indexes on the table. Conversely, much (most?) performance tuning comes down to query optimization rather than database configuration - reordering the parameters in a query can have dramatic effects on performance, depending on the database structure.
    So, you see, you're not likely to find a magic bullet that says 'make sure you add the gofaster=1 parameter to your my.cnf'. Database Administrators make a living with this stuff and every situation is different.

  • Can't get the INNODB storage engine to start with Leopard MySQL server...

    As shipped by apple. In the /etc/my.cnf file it says to just uncomment the stuff related to innodb and all will be well. I did that, restarted the Mysql server and when I take a look at the available storage engines using phpmyadmin, innodb is turned off...
    The following SQL runs:
    CREATE TABLE `Puzzles` (
    `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
    `initialState` char(81) NOT NULL default '',
    `solution` char(81) NOT NULL default '',
    `levelOfDifficulty` int(11) NOT NULL default '5',
    `numberOfClues` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
    PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
    UNIQUE KEY `initialState` (`initialState`),
    KEY `levelOfDifficulty` (`levelOfDifficulty`),
    KEY `numberOfClues` (`numberOfClues`)
    ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=780 ;
    But when I look at the table, it's a MyIsam table.
    Heres the innodb part of the /etc/my.cnf file:
    # Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables
    innodbdata_homedir = /var/mysql/
    innodbdata_filepath = ibdata1:2000M;ibdata2:10M:autoextend
    innodblog_group_homedir = /var/mysql/
    innodblog_archdir = /var/mysql/
    # You can set ..buffer_poolsize up to 50 - 80 %
    # of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high
    innodbbuffer_poolsize = 384M
    innodbadditional_mem_poolsize = 20M
    # Set ..log_filesize to 25 % of buffer pool size
    innodblog_filesize = 100M
    innodblog_buffersize = 8M
    innodbflush_log_at_trxcommit = 1
    innodblock_waittimeout = 50
    No errors in the logs visible through Server Admin. Did Apple put the MySQL configuration files somewhere non-standard and leave the /etc/my.cnf file around to fool us?
    Any pointers will be helpful or should I just build the fink package and give up on the shipped Leopard package (so far I'm not too impressed with Leopard).
    Best,
    Dick Munroe

    The problem turned out to be the sizes of the INNODB log and data files. Apparently, the initial startup of MySQL causes these files to be built. The numbers that you uncomment in the my.cnf file aren't related in any way to these sizes and the innodb storage engine won't start unless they match. Stop the server, delete the files, and restart the server and you're off and running. The logs on Leopard Server have NO indication that this has occurred. I found the problem by installing the Mac OS kit from mysql.com and looking in those logs. Interesting question is why that information is missing from the log for Leopard Server when the information is clearly available (as show by running the mysql server).

  • Poor performance after altering tables to InnoDB

    I have an application using CF MX, IIS, and MySQL 5.0.37
    running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
    When I originally built the application, access from login to
    start page and page to page was very good. But, I started getting
    errors because tables were sometimes getting records added or
    deleted and sometimes not. I thought the "cftransaction" statements
    were protecting my transactions. Then I found out about MyISAM (the
    default) vs InnoDB.
    So, using MySQLAdmin, I altered the tables to InnoDB. Now,
    the transactions work correctly on commits and rollbacks, but the
    performance of the application stinks. It now takes 20 seconds to
    log in.
    The first page involves a fairly involved select statement,
    but it hasn't changed at all. It just runs very slowly. Updates
    also run slowly.
    Is there something else I was supposed to do in addition to
    the "alter table" in this environment? The data tables used to be
    in /data/saf_data. Now the ibdata file and log files are in /data
    and only the ".frm" files are still in saf_data.
    I realize I'm asking this question in a CF forum. But, people
    here are usually very knowledgable and helpful and I'm desperate.
    This is a CF application. Is there anything I need to do for a CF
    app to work well with MySQL InnoDB tables? Any configuration or
    location stuff to know about?
    Help, and Thanks!

    The programs was ported also in earlier versions 1,5 year ago we use forte 6.2 and the performance was o.k.
    Possibly the program design was based on Windows
    features that are inappropriate for Unix. So the principal design didn't change, the only thing is, that we switch to the boost libraries, where we use the thread, regex, filesystem and date-time libraries
    Have you tried any other Unix-like system? Linux, AIX, HPUX,
    etc? If so, how does the performance compare to
    Solaris?Not at the moment, because the order is customer driven, but HP and Linux is also an option.
    Also consider machine differences. For example, your
    old Ultra-80 system at 450Mhz will not keep up with a
    modern x86 or x64 system at 3+ GHz. The clock speed
    could account for a factor of 6. That was my first thought, but how I have wrote in an earlier post, the performance testcase need the same time on a 6x1GHz (some Sun-Fire-T1000) machine
    Also, how much realmemory does the sparc system have? 4 GB! And during the testrun the machine use less than 30% of this memory.
    If the program is not multithreaded, the additional
    processors on the Ultra-80 won't help. But it is!
    If it is multithreaded, the default libthread or libpthread on
    Solaris 8 does not give the best performance. You can
    link with the alternative lwp-based thread library on
    Solaris 8 by adding the link-time option
    -R /usr/lib/lwp (for 32-bit applications)
    -R /usr/lib/lwp/64 (for 64-bit applications)The running application use both, the thread and the pthread library can that be a problem? Is it right, that the lwp path include only the normal thread library?
    Is there a particular reason why you are using the
    obsolete Solaris 8 and the old Sun Studio 10?Because we have customer which do not upgrade? Can we develop on Solaris 10 with SunStudio 11and deploy on 5.8 without risk?
    regards
    Arno

  • Doing transactions with MyISAM tables

    On Feb. 24, a question was asked about using cftransaction
    with MySQL. That person's answer was to convert the tables to
    InnoDB.
    I have three tables that must stay "in lockstep". When I add
    a row to one table, I have to add rows to the other two. If they
    get out of sync, one of the queries runs excruciatingly slow.
    I tried wrapping them in a cftransaction, but now find out
    that it didn't really do any good because the table format is still
    MyISAM. Is there anything I can do (short of altering the tables)
    to do transactions?
    Is there a way to get MySQL to process the transactions
    "manually". Do I have to do a series of "trys" and "catches" with a
    commit or rollback for each one? Do you know of a place where I can
    see code like that?
    It would be nice if I were just missing something and someone
    could tell me how to do transactions with MyISAM tables. But, I'll
    do whatever is necessary to avoid having the tables get out of
    sync.
    Thanks.

    After making a copy of the tables:
    I used MySQLAdmin to convert each of the tables to InnoDB. It
    displayed the correct "alter table table_name type=innobd;" box
    before each change.
    Before the changes, the three tables showed the same record
    count. After the changes, they were wildly different. But, (with no
    changes to the web pages) the application opens OK and I can call
    up records. Did the conversion get rid of some records or what?
    Also, one of the pages (that uses a lot of convoluted logic
    for the display) takes a lot longer to appear than it used to. All
    the other pages are open fine and display their forms, etc..
    Updates seem a little slower, but not too bad.
    Why is the record count different in the three tables? Why
    might the one page be running slower? (Do I need to make any
    changes in the original web page code?)
    Prior to the conversion, the three MyISAM tables (*.MYD,
    *.MYI, & *.frm) were all stored in the C:\\Program
    Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\data\my_data directory. Now that
    directory only holds ".frm" files. Where did the conversion put the
    new tables?
    I haven't yet tested the cftransactions to verify they work.
    That's next.
    Thanks.

  • How are Game Center "Friend Recommendations" people I know in real life? (Meetup/Facebook data?)

    This seems like a major privacy concern, but mainly I'm just very curious how this can possibly happen:
    The Game Center app suggests primarily people I have met in real life... but have had NO online interaction with!
    I life in a high-population US city, yet at least 2/3 of my Friend Recommendations (maybe more if they had photos or knew these peoples' last names) are people I have actually MET in person and know vaguely... but who I do now know well and who are NOT friends/contacts in any online service.
    I have never emailed them (with two exceptions); we don't even know each others' email addresses, and even if we did, my Apple ID email is not one I use for actual emailing purposes. Nor do we know each others' phone numbers, nor gaming nicknames; often not even last names. I didn't even know that they owned iOS devices or played games at all!
    We have certainly never played games with one another before; in fact, I have never used Game Center's friend feature and I don't have any GC friends. I only play random matches, and almost always on non-GC game services, for that matter.
    None of them has ever made a friend request to me. I've only ever gotten one GC request, long ago, and I denied it; it was not someone I knew.
    Some of them list "zero games in common" so it's not even that (and anyway, millions of people have games in common with me).
    Only one of them is in my Contacts (iOS/Mac address book), and knowing how serious they are about privacy, I doubt the email address I have is their AppleID. I know your address book can (for now) be accessed without permission, but these people just aren't listed.
    But I DO run into these recommendations in person every so often!
    These cannot be randomly selected by geography because a) they're not super close to me in miles, and b) there are millions of iOS users near me. No way that most of the suggestions would be people I've met, if this were chance alone. SOME source of data is being used by GC, and I'm baffled as to what it could be.
    The closest three theories I can come up with are all pretty implausible:
    1. Indirect Facebook connection. These people are NOT my Facebook friends (with a couple exceptions; I never actually use Facebook but I do have an account, and if someone requests, I generally accept). I double-checked that. But they MAY be "friends of friends" possibly. But how would Apple obtain my FB friend list? And if they did have it, wouldn't they just suggest my actual FB friends, not friends-of-friends? My Facebook login email address is an alumni address that I have never used for any other purpuse; it is not my Apple ID. And I have diligently set nearly every option to "hidden" on Facebook: even friends see a mostly blank profile!
    2. Meetup.com. This is a 100% correlation! I'm in several local groups that use Meetup.com to schedule meetings, and ALL of these Game Center recommendations are memebers of Meetup groups that I too am a member of. That's how I've met most of them. But Meetup has no "friends" feature, and most of these people have had no online connection with me (Meetup messages etc.) through Meetup. We've just attended the same events--which do have online RSVP lists--or else we are merely listed as members of the same group(s). (But we're talking large groups, so I haven't actually met most of the members, and I have met most of these GC recommendations.) But how would Apple obtain my Meetup info? Again my Meetup account's email address is not my Apple ID, and I have never used that email address with any Apple service (although it is on my Contacts card).
    3. Maybe Apple harvested my address book/contacts list (which does NOT contain these people), and also harvested the contacts lists of these people, AND also harvested the contacts lists of people we know in common who happen to have both of us listed. Then they put it all together. (That's a stretch: the people I know the best on Meetup--whose info I do have in Contacts--are Android users!) But again, why not recommend my actual contacts, instead of contacts-of-contacts? My actual contacts--which contain numerous iOS users and games--are notably absent from the recommendations (with one exception).
    Obivously Apple cannot, and does not, literally know who I have met. (No foil hat for me!) But they DO seem to have some data source that correlates closely with people I have met (and Meetup activity especially). I'm dying to know how that's possible.
    This is a privacy concern, for at least three reasons I can think of:
    1. GC lists these people's real names AND GC nicknames together--BEFORE I have accepted them as friends! And vice versa, I'm sure my nickname is being shown with my real name to total strangers. That means strangers, employers, stalkers, whoever, can now tie a person to their nickname (often the same one they use all over the Interner, not just GC). But we're not talking random suggestions: this is being show to people I DO know. Maybe I don't want them Googling my online nicknames! Maybe I complain about my work with that nickname Maybe I want my online friends and real-life acquaintainces kept separate. I definitely want EVERYTHING kept separate from these people I barely know but run into from time to time! One of these people is, in fact, on the sex offenders registry, and has stalked a friend of mine both online and offline. Maybe he'll learn my GC nickname--the same way it has shown me his--and can now Google that!
    2. If I have a lot of "games in common" listed, then they can peg me as a "gamer," which is sometimes a negative. Maybe I want my boss (or whoever) to think I'm more serious, even if he games too, and now he knows I have 30 games and wonders why I'm not staying late to work Maybe I just don't want to be roped into being "friends" online with my boss, or having to let him win games! Again, although this is a small issue at first glance, it's less small when things are being shared with people you really DO know in real life. What if my hypothetical stalker sees I have games in common? Sure, I can deny their friend request and cancel their 500 game attempts, but I'd rather be 100% hidden from them in the first place. I have no prior online contact, I want it to stay that way, and I've never given Apple permission, that I know of, to share my real name with people I never friended. (And even if I did, it should be with random strangers--not actual acquaintances.)
    3. The big mystery--how is Apple getting data that correlates with who I've met in the first place? I'm guessing that some people see the same pattern I do, and some don't; which might lead to an answer, but so far I'm stumped. (If this does tie to Meetup some bizarre way, that would be unnerving because Meetup ties me to real places and specific times.)
    Theories are welcome! And a basic question: what data sources DOES Game Center have available to use in making friend suggestions? I would have guessed maybe Location Services (nearby people) and people who have played a game with me (or made a friend request) in the past. But those sources are not what I'm seeing.
    (Even weirder is that nobody else seems to have posted about this happening; it may not happen to everyone, but surely some people have had this same question? I feel like I'm in a Kafka novel...)

    That's a good thought that could explain some cases, but not mine: these people definitely don't know my email address, and I'm not in their Address Book. (Some of these are people I might meet on a hike, say, and nod to in passing on other hikes once a or twice a year, and that's the extent of the "relationship"--no contact info ever exchanged. We don't even know what cities each other are from.)
    we don't even know each others' email addresses, and even if we did, my Apple ID email is not one I use for actual emailing purposes. Nor do we know each others' phone numbers, nor gaming nicknames; often not even last names.
    I should correct my first post: I said I "do now know well"... that should be "do NOT know well".

  • Can no longer recommend Fascinate due to non-support of issues -  class action time?

    I loved my Fascinate when I got it, but the failure of Verizon to promptly resolve KNOWN software issues with known-to-Verizon solutions constitutes something dangerously close to fraud.  Like others, I was promised a prompt upgrade to Froyo by a Verizon rep when I bought the phone.  Like others. my GPS performance is terrible, with frequent delays of 10 minutes to infinity to achieve a location lock.  Like others, I let my 30 day return expire because I was promised a software fix was coming out Real Soon Now, so now I am screwed.
    The issue is NOT the delayed Froyo update,the issue is that the phone does not function as promised by Verizon when sold.  Knowing sale of a defective product that does not meet its advertised features is fraudulent under the commercial code in any state of the union.
    Therefore I am doing some of the few things I can do under the circumstances:
    First of all, new buyers are warned that the phone DOES NOT WORK as advertised in many cases due to software issues with GPS, email push, and other features.  If you buy it, don't expect it to work.  If you are promised otherwise by a Verizon store or rep, be warned that the promises are empty.  Be warned that the Verizon implementation of Bing en lieu of Google search and other disruptions of the base Google services makes the phone almost unusable compared to a true Android environment such as that on certain other Android phones and providers.  Bing is terrible. VZNavigator is a rip off (and terrible).  If you are a lawyer interested in a class action against Verizon related to thi sphone be aware that you should have plenty of interested parties.  Personally I would like my service fees waved for the period from September when I bought the phone through whenever-they-actually-make-it-work with debugged software.  It is clear that engineering KNOWS how to make the GPS work even without a full Froyo update - they just haven't released a patch.
    I wish I could love this phone - but I can't recommend it any more to any one for any reason until Samsung/Verizon fix the software and de-Bing and de-bloat an otherwise excellent piece of hardware.  This is EXACTLY what Apple got right, and that Verizon has wrong.  A pox on them and their bloatware and BIng and broken search functions.  It's like a bad dream.  Swapping the hardware out for another Fasicinate won't fix it.  I'm stuck.

    Do I actually expect to see a suit?  No, not really.  But, message reads on the first page of the Fascinate forum suggest that as of now at least 4000 potential Fascinate owners may have received enough reasons to consider either a different phone or a different carrier.  Verizon execs might have a look over the fence at IPhone land, where there is a mob wielding torches and pitch forks that loves their iPhones (but hates ATT for the poor service experience).  Provide even average service and you build brand loyalty that overcomes almost any foul up.  Give your customers good reasons to hate you, and they surely will.
    Today I drove a 30 mile round trip with a fresh A-GPS almanac and never got GPS located closer than 1100 yards.  If it ever DOES synch, it will be good to 10 ft.  and stay locked until I go indoors.  If.  The Bluetooth refused to connect (again).  Works great WHEN it actually occasionally works though.  The hardware can do it.  The software is a bad joke.  Is is Samsung's fault?  Maybe.  Could Verizon provide a timely fix by internal or Samsung resources? Definitely. Samsung has fixed these issues for other markets long ago.   The shame is that it takes what could be a great experience and sours it all.  It's not about Froyo, it's about having basic features that work.  While some of thse phones work perfectly, some combination of hardware and software issues means that too many customers did not receive what the paid for, and they have good reason to be angry with Verizon for the poor experience and callous treatment.

  • Printer recommendations please.

    Hi, I need a new printer and would like recommendations as to what to buy. The last printer I bought was an HP 1220c for an Imac running OS 9. When I upgraded to OS X I lost many of the printer's features, booklet and two sided printing most frustratingly, and never regained them. I need booklet printing, two sided printing, and preferably large format printing. I am looking at two printers from HP in particular, the OfficeJet 7300 at <http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06a/18972-238444-410635-12019-f51-39 1181.html>, and the Deskjet 9800 at <http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/productdetail.do?product_code=C8165A%23A2L&tab=overview&storeName=storefronts&landing=p rinters&category=inkjets&subcat1=seeall&catLevel=3#defaultAnchor>. HP claims that they are MAC compatible, but I don't trust them. If anyone has personal experience with either of these printers, I would appreciate your opinions of them.
    Thank you, Caoim

    I also have a HP DeskJet 1220c and had problems with it using OSX. I tried many solutions (selected print drivers), but ended up purchasing a print driver for the 1220c from PrintFab. http://www.printfab.net/ I had to experiment with the menus to get the best print quality, but finally got good results. I don't print two-sided, so I don't know if that would still be a problem. (There is a menu for paper handling.) You can download a demo version to try and see if it works for you. Just another option you can try before purchasing a new printer.

  • Where can I buy a larger hard drive for my late 2008, 15" macbook pro?  From reviewing questions and answers on the support community it would appear that having Apple remove the old and install the new hard drive is recommended.  But how/where?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can install the new hard disk yourself if you want to. You just need a 2'5" SATA II hard drive, which is compatible with your MacBook Pro. You can buy one at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ You can filter hard drives by computer, so press a "Click to view all...", choose your computer in the sidebar and it will give you the compatible hard drives.
    There are different brands for the MacBook Pro. The most recommended are HGST and Seagate, which have good reputation. A 7200 rpm hard drive will give you extra performance
