If you're trying to decide between a fast but expensive SSD, and a slower but cheaper and more spacious HDD, could hybrid drives be a good compromise?

I had a SSHD drive in my laptop, and I was so frustrated, that I bought a Samsung Evo 850 as soon as I could, as now using that SSHD as an external drive. I could be unlucky, that maybe I only have tried bad quality SSHD's though.. I can't remember the brand/model of my SSHD

I love the WD dualdrive for laptops. You get a 120 gig ssd and a 1 tb hdd. And you can set them up as two different drives in the OS. Plus it only takes up one 2.5 inch slot. I throw them in older laptops all the time, though they have recently gone up a lot in price, I suspect it's been discontinued

Hybrid controllers like the Marvell HyperDuo are quite nice too. Just stick an old 256GB SSD on it and your huge 4TB HDD will be running like hell. Well, at least that few very important folders with your favorite games. The thing I like most about this solution is, that even when removing the SSD, the data on the HDD remains untouched. That's probably a lot better than SSHDs would handle an SDD failure.

I am also considering getting an external drive too as an additional backup. I'm so not a techie so thank you in advance for any help.

@mattieonutube273 2 года назад

Sorry if this is too late and you’ve made your decision already, but a popular thing people often do (myself included) is getting a smaller capacity SSD for their operating system (Windows 10 for example), and adding a high capacity HDD for more storage. It’s not a bad option at all, but alternatively you could just get a high capacity SSD, which would make all of your applications installed on it run faster. Keep in mind the secondary drive will only be useful if you are actively installing things on it or just use it for a backup. If a backup is your main concern for a secondary drive, I would probably just get an SSD for your primary drive and use an external for backup.

@trapadvisor 2 года назад

I’d say an Ssd for things like windows, video games, or high quality video. Hdd for everything else.

@TheRhinoking27 8 лет назад

The WD black^2 beats an SSHD when it comes to laptop storage. 120GB SSD and a 1TB HDD showing up as 2 drives in one drive bay is cool. It even doesnt automatically add files to the memory, you have the freedom to add what programs or files u want to the drives. (besides the OS that gets put on the SSD)
