The editors didn't like

  • Price (For Some)
  • 8GB SLC NAND Flash May Not Be Enough For Everyone
  • 9.7mm high
  • Not quite as effective as SSD
  • Please drop by the Bigbruin.com Forum and feel free to post any comments or questions
  • Doesn't Run as Cool or Quiet as SSD
  • Speed boost is not immediately seen
  • Really only worth it if you boot from it or run applications from it
  • Limited by performance of the HD when solid state cache not used
  • Outperformed by other hybrid solutions
  • Not as fast as SSDs or other hybrid solutions. Benefits don't kick in right away
  • Moving parts means it’s still susceptible to damage
  • Just like your regular drive. Speeds up boot times
  • But transferring files is pretty much the same as traditional drives. Higher cost-per-gigabyte.
  • The new Seagate Momentus XT is noticeably more expensive than regular hard drives of the same storage space. Its data copy speed is comparatively slower than that of high-end hard drives
  • Lacks comparable IOPS operational performance to SSDs
  • Expensive hybrid storage solution (postfacility flooding)
  • Hard disk would benefit from 64MB DRAM buffer
  • Not as fast as an SSD
  • Less storage capacity than a conventional mechanical HD.
  • Slightly higher power consumption

  • Augmentation de la capacité du disque dur et du SSD,  Passage du Sata II au Sata III
  •  - Prix assez élevé
  • Le Momentus XT est donc un très bon disque 2,5 pouces, qui représente un bon compromis face au SSD quand il s'agit d'accélérer le démarrage de Windows, voire le lancement des programmes. De plus, vous bénéficiez d'une capacité de 750 Go (698 Go sous Windo...

  • Le Momentus XT 750 Go reprend le flambeau de son prédécesseur avec succès. Dans toutes les situations de notre banc d’essai, il se montre plus agile et véloce. La partie disque dur mécanique gagne en rapidité tandis que le cache SLC de 8 Go se dévoile ...

  • Non è facile trarre le conclusioni sul Seagate Momentus XT. La sua natura ibrida richiede di valutare le prestazioni da diversi punti di vista. Per esempio bisogna aspettare che il disco vada "a regime" prima di misurarne le prestazioni, e anche ricordars...

  • Abstract:  Tra gli HDD e gli SSD, Seagate ha provato a creare una terra di mezzo con il suo l'ibrido Momentus XT. L'idea non era affatto male ed anche la resa in termini di reattività del sistema si è dimostrata piuttosto interessante.Certo i 4GB di memoria NAND non...

  •  Costo al GB contenuto,  Miglioramenti reali, anche se altalenanti, rispetto ad un 7200 standard,  Supportato da qualsiasi sistema perché l'implementazione dell'SSD avviene a livello hardware
  • In linea generale l'ibrido Momentus XT 500GB porta dei miglioramenti rispetto ad un comune HDD. Nulla di paragonabile ad un SSD puro naturalmente, ma anche il prezzo è molto più basso. Diciamo che è una buona soluzione intermedia che restituisce una risp...

  • Abstract:  Die Solid State Drive (SSD) gehört inzwischen zum PC-Alltag. Wäre nicht der vergleichsweise hohe Gigabyte-Preis und der meist zu knappe Speicherplatz, hätte die Flashspeicher-Festplatte längst die ferromagnetischen Scheibendreher vom Markt gefegt. Doch di...

  • Tatsächlich kann die Momentus XT unter bestimmten Bedingungen, nämlich sich wiederholenden Operationen, quasi so schnell arbeiten wie eine durchschnittliche SSD. Voraussetzung ist, dass sich diese Operationen wiederholen und das Laufwerk die Chance erhält...

  • Leise im Betrieb (0,5 Sone), Fünf Jahre Herstellergarantie
  • Nicht alle benötigten Teile mitgeliefert (Bulk-Version)
  • Die Seagate Momentus XT bringt eine spürbare Leistungssteigerung. Mit 750 Gigabyte bietet sie zudem viel Speicherplatz. Der Aufpreis gegenüber einer gleich großen Festplatte ohne SSD-Beschleuniger ist relativ hoch – die gebotene Leistung aber nur „befried...
