Does. Not. Matter. All external hard drives will perform virtually the same.

If you have the cash, look for a SSD (solid state drive). These drives are expensive, very expensive, but offer a much higher performance than normal hard drives. Just look for something that can fit your laptop's hard drive specifications (e.g. 2.5", SATA) and you'll be able to just fit it right in. The Intel SSDs are currently the more popular ones (e.g. Intel X25m) Alternatively, just get a normal hard drive such as a SATA 500GB. 5400rpm or 7200rpm, doesn't really make a big difference.
