See post #4 in this thread for my results on the SSHD. I haven't used my notebook yet since I installed the SSHD and did a few restarts to "train" it so the final results won't be in for a while. Keep in mind, it will not be as fast as a SSD but is, instead, an economical compromise of speed and capacity when only one drive can be used, as in lower end laptops, notebooks, and netbooks. In my case, I couldn't justify shelling out the shekels for an SSD that cost significantly more than the machine it was going into.
I received the SSD on Friday and I've been setting up the computer since then.
It is staggering how quick the computer is opening anything now! There's just no comparison, it is tremendously faster doing anything. Simply amazing, like 1/3 of the time on boot, and no lags whatsoever (running on 4GB RAM and single-core).
