    Hi forum.

    One good question (I think) I will buy 250gb~ SSD and I will need 1TB hard drive.
    Should I buy a simple 5400rpm hard drive or Seagate 1TB SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive)
    Will I get any performance boost by using SSHD next to SSD?
    Give me your thoughts and suggestions.

    Thank You. KarlosElTorro :GEEK:

    No, hybrid drives only provide an advantage for regular usage patterns, for a data drive get a standard 7200RPM one.

    Not a problem, hybrid drives have lost their time now with mSATA slots now being common especially.
