SSD or SSHD?

#1 Post by carbuff » Thu Apr 09, 2015 3:29 am

For a single drive only and price not being of consideration, what would your choice be for a T430 home-office laptop:

512GB Crucial SSD

or

Seagate 1TB SSHD

Skip the SSHD since they combine the worst of both worlds.

Go for the SSD - Crucial MX100/200 is a very decent choice - or just stay with a full-blown spinner.

Happy shopping.
