SSD Performance, HDD Capacity, Affordable Price.
- Momentus® XT solid state hybrid drives (SSHD) fuse the lightning speed of SSD with the high capacity of a hard drive. Powered by Seagate Adaptive Memory™ technology, SSHD improves boot times and application speed dramatically, unleashing your system’s performance.
- Boots up and performs like an SSD1
- Up to three times faster than a traditional HDD1
- Is installed like a typical hard drive, and works with any standard laptop and major OS
- SATA 6Gb/s with NCQ for interface speed

Performs like an SSD
SSHDs use Seagate flash management technology to deliver SSD-like performance. Testing confirms that the Momentus XT SSHD compares favourably to SSD — without sacrificing capacity.

Solid state hybrid drives – the best of both worlds
Seagate SSHDs integrate NAND flash solid state storage with traditional hard drive storage, creating a drive with the best of both worlds. You have solid state speed, with the capacity of a hard drive, at a fraction of the price of solid state alone. Compatibility with most standard hard drives, combined with performance and reliability, makes SSHDs an easy choice.
No need to compromise performance over capacity
Seamless integration of NAND flash and HDD storage allows standard installation and use
Unmatched data integrity and reliability by maximising the strengths of both flash and hard drive storage
Seagate Adaptive Memory™ technology uses algorithms to monitor data usage in real time, ensuring that frequently used data is stored in the NAND flash memory and improving system-level performance dramatically.

SSHD is affordable.
SSHDs fuse the strength of SSD and HDD into one affordable and powerful device. You do not have to compromise capacity over performance anymore. With an SSHD, you can have it all. It is the latest and most affordable way to maximise every penny you invest in your PC.
