I would be much more interested to know what Seagate did to improve product reliability and internal accountability than to read about some new flashy performance points and cost advantages.
Nobody who is attached to his precious data should trust a new HD line before checking a 6 months in-the-wild actual data.

P.C. Wang ROFL! You guys crack me up!

I am not pro or contra of any OS, so this is just a comment on comments of some one-sided minds

First, Win 7 is built with such technology in mind, see its spec.
Second, as anyone can expect, this gaming laptop is also for Windows not the OSX or Linux.
And third, it's the harddrive manufacturers who are actually 2-3 years late to the market.

Great they finally started to make them as promised years ago. Now SSDs will start faster drop in price

Always had good results with Western Digital drives but this concept seems pretty cool. My hard drive is the slowest performer in my gaming rig and it is a new WD SATA II drive so this would be cool to bring up the drive performance in 7-64bit game rating.

And since the decision of whether to store given blocks in SSD or HD is done entirely within the drive, it's completely OS-independent.

I want one.

Like any newly released technology, there's probably some technical shortcoming in Windows that prevents it from being used. The PCtards will blame everyone except Microsoft, where the blame truly lies. Meanwhile, newer, bigger, faster hardware, it's all business as usual for Linux and OSX.
