A hybrid drive adds 128MB or 256MB of Flash memory to a traditional hard
drive. By temporarily caching data in the memory, the drive reduces system boot
and resume times.
It also increases battery life in notebook computers by limiting the need for
the drive to spin. The technology can cut boot-up time in half, and increase
battery life by an average of 10 per cent.
The Samsung MH80 hard drives require
Microsoft's
ReadyDrive technology which is built into Windows Vista. They come in 80GB,
120GB and 160GB capacities.
Microsoft developed the
hybrid
drive technology and has provided royalty-free licences to manufacturers on
the condition that it is applied exclusively in Windows systems.
Seagate
and
Hitachi
are also in the process of developing hybrid drives.
