What is a Hybrid Hard Drive?

A hybrid hard disk is a new hard disk based on a traditional mechanical hard disk. In addition to the necessary disks, motors, magnetic heads, etc. of the mechanical hard disk, it also has a built-in NAND flash particle. This particle stores the data that users frequently access, which can Such as SSD (that is, solid-state hard disk) effect reading performance. ^[1]

Hybrid hard disks are just a marketing lie. When disks are being read or written, they are generally performed as a queue or a chain, and they do not respond instantly. Even in traditional magnetic hard drives

Many notebooks now use different hybrid hard disks (SSD + HDD) than desktop computers. Hybrid hard disk notebooks are dual hard disks. One of the small-capacity solid-state hard disks is mostly a 128GB or 256GB capacity system disk. Used for hibernation and advanced file caching. Another large-capacity mechanical hard disk is used to store a large amount of data.
