Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHD Hybrid Drives

Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive) is a type of storage device that combines the speed of an SSD (Solid State Drive) with the storage capacity of an HDD (Hard Disk Drive). It is designed specifically for laptops and ultrabooks.

The Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHD has a small amount of flash memory, usually 16GB or 8GB, which acts as a cache for frequently accessed data. The remaining storage space is provided by a traditional spinning hard disk drive. The drive's firmware intelligently manages the data, moving frequently accessed data to the flash memory for faster access times, while storing less frequently accessed data on the hard disk drive for maximum storage capacity.

The benefits of using Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHD include faster boot times, faster application load times, and faster overall system responsiveness compared to a traditional hard disk drive. It is also less expensive than a full SSD of equivalent capacity, making it an attractive option for those who need both speed and storage capacity.

Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHD is available in different capacities, ranging from 500GB to 1TB. It is also designed to be compatible with Windows and Mac OS X operating systems, and it can be easily installed in most laptops with a standard 2.5-inch drive bay.

    SSHD Technology and Features

  • Boot - Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHDs are known for incredibly fast boot-up times, and now they are even better with fast boot technology. This system boot-up technique can reduce your boot time
    to mere seconds—for a fast cold-boot start. It can cut your system start-up time by up to 65% over a traditional HDD. Fast boot technology will deliver the quickest boot possible, whether you boot your system once a day or once a week. Your OS boot-up files are always there, ready to work.
  • Flash Management - Seagate Ultra Mobile SSHDs also implement a management feature that provides seamless integration between hardware, firmware and high-speed NAND flash while maintaining data integrity under all conditions—any system, any OS and with any driver.
  • Adaptive Memory Technology - Adaptive Memory technology delivers SSD-like response from the applications and files you use the most. It enables the Ultra Mobile SSHD drive to effectively and accurately identify frequently-used data and place it in the NAND flash memory. The result is that instant-response experience to help you perform at your best.
