Samsung has announced it’s first laptops with new Hybrid HDD built in. The first to get this Hybrid HDD upgrade is 15.4″ Samsung R55 multimedia notebook.
Hybrid HDD is a technology that ads a flash RAM chip to the standard HDD. This way most frequently used data can be stored and read from flash memory, reducing the usage (spin) of HDD itself.
According to Samsung, when used for small chunks (up to 10Mb) of data in R55, Hybrid Hard Drive had 26% improvement on data reading and 71% improvement of datawriting speed, 32% lower power consumption and increased HDD longevity by 10%.
