For users who are looking for incremental performance and system responsiveness, SSHDs are much faster than standard HDDs. The SSHD really shines when its combination of performance, capacity and price are evaluated together. SSDs yield the overall best performance, yet the margins of improvement in real-world tests for booting, launching and loading applications are not as dramatic as the PCMark Vantage results would suggest. This simulates how the drive runs in a real world environment. When testing the SSHD, the tests run four consecutive times to allow the device to develop an initial basis of data usage. Seagate tests each device and compares the results to evaluation performance. How Seagate Benchmarks for Performance in the Real WorldĮach storage device was evaluated using the following tests and benchmarks: Testing was completed on the Windows 7 operating system. All tests were run on the same non-branded desktop platform built on an Intel Core i5 processor equipped with 4GB of DRAM cache. To demonstrate the fact that the Desktop SSHDs are as fast as the laptop family, Seagate tested the new products alongside their own 7200-RPM Desktop HDD, a competitive 5400-RPM desktop HDD and an Intel 320 SSD. The Seagate® Desktop SSHD is available in 1TB, 2TB and 4TB configurations, which use the same architecture that made their Laptop SSHDs very popular. Seagate is the first company to ship an SSHD product in the 3.5-inch form factor, which is traditionally sized for the desktop and workstation market. Three years later, Toshiba and Western Digital entered the market, both shipping 2.5-inch form factor products targeting the laptop computer market. Solid state hybrid drives (SSHD) entered the market a few years ago with Seagate being the sole provider of 2.5-inch form factor SSHDs for laptop computers.
