    heh, we're both wrong...

    "One of the goals of upcoming hybrid hard disk is to reduce power consumption by adding a small amount of Non-Volatile flash memory (NVCache) to the drive itself."

    Crimsonman.. I guess you were closer considering non-volatile flash memory is most commonly used for increasing RAM on video... or so I'm told...

    Good call...
