Seagate Momentus XT drive

Seagate has announced it is now shipping ‘Momentus', “the world's fastest 2.5-inch laptop PC hard drive. “The Momentus XT drive combines a 7200RPM spin speed, 4GB of solid state memory and Seagate's Adaptive Memory technology to deliver unprecedented hard drive performance,” says the company. It installs as easily as a traditional 9.5mm-high notebook drive for new systems or laptop upgrades and, unlike early hybrid drives, operates independently of the operating system and the motherboard chipset
