    Customers like the performance of the hard drive. They say it works really fast, applications start up much faster, and everything else works much quicker. The hybrid drive can cut boot times by a significant fraction due to lower latency. It also improves the load times of games on the PS4, and the data transfer rate is very impressive.

    LONG shipment time; Mediocre drive.
    3 Stars
    LONG shipment time; Mediocre drive.
    I had purchased this SSHD a week and a half ago once my wife's laptop HDD was starting to show signs of failure.Amazon took 5 full business days, 7 days total, to ship it off. It had two day shipping, which wasn't bad, but still pretty ridiculous that I had to wait an entire week for it to ship.After hearing about the SSHD on AnandTech, I decided to give it a try.It really is not a bad price for what you're getting. At the core, you are mostly getting a 1TB 2.5" HDD. For $69.99, that's not a bad price... It is actually about average. Plus the 5 year limited warranty, it is not a bad buy at all.This drive worked perfectly out of the box, installing Windows 10 was really quick, setting everything up was relatively quick as well.There are some noticeable slow-downs, where the drive is not as fast as it could be... Getting past the bios screen, while windows is initially booting (before any windows screen) it hangs for about 30-40 seconds, once it gets to the windows screen it's about 7 seconds before I can login; After logging in, it'll take me another 40-50 seconds to get past the login loading screen and into windows, and another 10-25 seconds to actually start using everything within windows. (Opening Chrome, Steam, Star menu, etc. with rapid response times.)Some things are extremely fast, and it's great.Other things are on-par with most other typical HDD performances.The 8GB NAND Cache, that gives this HDD the "Solid State Hybrid Drive" label, should be sufficient enough considering that "most files 8GBs or larger can be ran faster on a HDD than a SSD."All in all, it is a good drive. I will come back and update this review each month. So far so good. Way faster and better than the 750GB Western Digital HDD (Blue) that was in my wife's MSI CX62 2PC-499US.Included is a benchmark from Crystal Disk Mark.While I may not have enough knowledge to tell you what everything in the benchmark includes or means, I do have enough experience to know that it is about average. Some areas it is pretty fast, others it is not...Some times it is really fast, sometimes it is not...That sums up this solid state hybrid drive really well. It is constantly in-between 'really-fast' and 'average.'I would still recommend this to anyone looking to replace a laptop hard drive, or anyone looking to slap this into their console.If you're an enthusiast, building a desktop computer, go pickup the 3.5" version of this drive -- It's faster.
