    Performance that Adapts to You

    Seagate Adaptive Memory technology is the secret to Desktop SSHD's stunning responsiveness. Adaptive Memory software learns what data you use most then copies it to the drive's solid state memory, where it can be accessed in an instant.

    Installs with Ease

    Seagate Desktop SSHD installs and works with your desktop computer exactly like a standard hard drive. It's fully compatible with standard SATA technology, and there's no need to worry about what OS you're using: Desktop SSHD is compatible with most major operating systems and do not require any special drivers or sotware to make it run.

    Product Description

    The Seagate Desktop SSHD combines a high capacity hard drive and 8GB of solid-state MLC flash to add SSD like performance to any desktop. The Desktop SSHD boots and launches applications within seconds of a solid state drive, but is more cost efficient because the combined technology leverages the cost efficiency of a hard disk drive. Adaptive Memory technology intelligently monitors the frequently used files and stores them in the solid state memory for blazing fast recall. The SATA 6Gb/s NCQ interface with 64 MB cache enables the use of the industry's latest and fastest hard drive controllers while providing backward compatibility to SATA 3Gb/s systems. The Desktop SSHD is designed to work in most desktop systems without the need for special drivers or software to install and configure. It installs and works just like a hard drive only faster. Simultaneously run multiple applications like video and photography editing, video playback and computer games. Backed by a 3 year limited warranty.

    Turned an 8 year old iMAC into a new machine.
    5 Stars
    Turned an 8 year old iMAC into a new machine.
    I have a 2007 24" iMac that has been slowing to a crawl lately. Seems every time I update the OS the machine would get slower and slower. I have the maximum 4GB of ram, but with all the added features that OS X 10.10 had, it just kept taking up all of the memory just after a half an hour of use. I needed to use Memory Monitor from the Apple App store to purge the memory over and over again.Well, my original 320 GB hard drive was starting to give out with the dreaded folder with a question mark showing up on my screen every few days. I was going to get a regular hard drive, but figured that I would give this a try. Fortunately I have a iDsonix external quick mount drive to format and install the operating system. I took a gamble and installed Mac OS 10.11, El Capitan. Then migrated all of the data from my internal hard drive to the new external one. And to my surprise, it ran surprising well. And this was using a USB 2.0 external connection. Boot time was a bit slow, but I had a feeling it would be much quicker once installed internally. The next morning, I swapped out the internal drive with the new Seagate Hybrid Drive and it booted up in under a minute. That was a good sign.I've been using the new drive with the latest MAC OS EL CAPITAN and this thing is running like a new machine and it's 8 years old. Before, my iMAC would be crippled if I had a few tabs opened in Safari and I tried using the Mail program or Photos. Now I can have all of them open and even though the memory monitor states I only have 15 MB of ram available. The computer is running like a champ because the 8 GB of FLASH storage more than compensate for the disk swapping that is taking place. I'm adding a screenshot of all the apps and windows I have opened and how much free memory my MAC says I have left and I'm having ZERO beach ball delays.If you have an older MAC and you've filled up the RAM, then I highly recommend replacing the HARD DRIVE with this Seagate SSHD.
