    Anyone have experience with the hp hybrid 5400 drives? Are they significantly faster than the standard drives?

    If you open the internet 50 times a day the drive will basically move the internet browser to the SSD portion of the drive and it will become faster.

    They are great if you need a lot of storage but they only boost programs that are less then 4 - 8GG and that are used frequently.
