“(Benchmark) numbers aren't always truly representative of what you see in performance day in and day out. One measure of this drive's speed is bootup: My computer starts up 10 times faster and, running PhotoShop, it's nice and snappy...I look for price for performance in a hard drive. On that score, I'm very impressed with Momentus XT. It's been great.” -Overclockers Club, May 2010 “The performance of Momentus XT is very impressive. The drive outperformed 2TB 7200RPM desktop drives in a RAID configuration.” -Hardware Geeks, May 2010 “I was very happy to see how quickly it loaded Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Momentus XT loaded it 46% faster than a 7200RPM desktop drive. Online gamers like me won't have to spend as much time waiting for the action to start...If the Call of Duty test is any indication, the hybrid capability will be a nice feature and won't cost you an arm and a leg compared to an SSD of similar size.” -Gaming Nexus, May 2010 “Momentus XT is easily a 25% performance gain from a standard 7200RPM notebook drive. The drive easily beat the Hitachi 7200RPM notebook drive in loading applications and Windows bootup. I think it's price very competitively for the performance gain...When it came to loading screens on high-end games such as Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age Origins, Momentus was noticeable faster than the 7200RPM Hitachi laptop drive. This drive is a champ!” -GameBanshee, May 2010

	"With the Momentus XT, ASUS can provide gaming customers who prefer the ASUS ROG G73 with the capacity they need and the performance they crave. Seagate's innovative Solid State Hybrid drive hands down delivers the best value SSD-like performance to a wide audience." - PC Wang, Vice President of the ASUS Systems Business Group

Product Description

The Seagate Momentus XT drive offers hybrid storage with Adaptive Memory technology, enabling the drive to deliver higher capacities up to 500 GB and SSD-like performance. The Momentus XT drive is designed for all standard laptop PCs and is OS-, driver- and software independent, making this drive easy to integrate and easy to use. Adaptive Memory technology enables the drive to tailor its performance to the user. Whether you are gaming, editing digital media or crunching numbers, the performance is optimized and ready for your next move. Adaptive Memory technology is a Seagate data management technique that constantly monitors and quickly recalls data usage and preferences. It places files and data that the user will likely access again and again into the solid state portion of the drive. When the user requires the data or application file, it already sits in an instantly accessible location, thereby customizing system performance for the user. Constant monitoring dynamically improves overall response time based on personal usage. You can perform at your best no matter how you use your laptop PC.
