I believe that the average consumer is more concerned with capacity than performance. On the other hand, is that what consumers are most concerned with? In the immortal words of that Home Alone kid: I don't think so. The owner of that $700 laptop would be a lot more willing to spend one-tenth the price for a significant storage-performance upgrade, Zhang contends. For example, a 500GB Seagate Momentus XT can be purchased on Amazon for $69.99.
Hybrid drives, on the other hand, can be had for as little as 14 cents a gigabyte.

They offer SSD performance on critical operations such as boot up and application load times, and provide vastly higher capacities for the money than an SSD.įang Zhang, an analyst with IHS iSuppli, says most consumers purchasing a $700 PC or laptop aren't going to spend hundreds of dollars on an SSD. Hybrid drives can be a bridge between hard drives and SSDs. There are industry analysts who believe the hybrid drive's time has come and gone. Seagate's Momentus XT Solid State Hybrid Drive That requires more and more time as more data fills the drive. Random performance is particularly important as the drive begins to fill with data and the read/write head must move across the spinning disk to locate the information you want. Random (as in Random Access Memory, or RAM) performance is where the drive fell flat: the disk had a random write performance of 67.6 MB/sec and a random read performance of 34MB/sec. Using the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test, the WD Black showed a sequential read/write performance of 122.2 MB/sec.
