Seagate Innovation About to Deliver a Windows Vista-Ready Hybrid Drive

Overview Hybrid hard drive technology, pairing a cache of NonVolatile (NV) memory with traditional hard drive technology, offers significant power efficiency, speed and extreme durability benefits, especially for notebook computers and mobile devices. The Microsoft Windows Vista operating system is the first operating system to fully enable the benefits of hybrid technology. Seagate augments its product portfolio with a Windows Vista-ready hybrid drive, the Momentus 5400 PSD, which will enable consumers to boot almost instantly, load applications quickly, extend battery life and increase the reliability of storage.
