Question: Is the drive really 7200? It doesn't say on the unit itself.
Document: What makes this hybrid drive so unique is that is has an 8GB SSD to shorten boot times dramatically over traditional HDD. While in my testing, I wouldn't say it was quite as fast as a TRUE SSD, it is considerably faster than a standard 7200 RPM HDD. So if you're looking for a nice performance increase, while not compromising on your storage capacity, this is the drive for you!
:-)Important note: When I initially installed the drive on my Windows 7 PC it recognized it just fine, but with a small catch. It only saw the drive as a 2 TB. Through some research I found that Windows 7 can only see up to a 2 TB. However the work around for this is to change the drive from the traditional MRB set-up to a GPT setup and partition it into 2 separate drives. Before you run away and say that's a really scary thing to do.
Then I took the 5th drive to a 2nd computer and tried to install windows 7 64-bit from DVD and the installer couldn't use the disk. I'm returning the advanced replacement drive to Seagate after fighting with it for 4 hours. One thing to note is that DiskWizard does mention that the 2 TB disk is 'Unsupported' on one of the wizard pages going through the clone process.All I can really say is that there are either some incompatibilities with the 2 systems I have OR there might be a defect.
I needed a replacement for a failed RAID array and SSD was too expensive for a decent size, so I decided to get a hybrid. While it is clearly not as fast as an SSD, it is much faster than the 7200 RPM drive it replaced and possibly faster than the RAID. My OS is on an SSD, so I have extra programs and data on this one and it works great.
I was upgrading the CPU from Intel E6400 Dual Core to Intel QX6700 Extreme Quad Core CPU and a few other things on my Desktop PC recently and accidentally broke the SATA II Data connector on my 1TB Hitachi 7200 RPM SATA II Disk Drive.While researching my options for replacing the damaged Hitachi 1TB SATA II disk drive.
I like my drive, wish it was at least 7200 RPM, one thing I did notice is that I had to go into my  bios and set the speed to 6gb transfer speed. It would not accept auto mode, on restart the third time installing windows came up to blank page, it ask me to  choose boot device. I was like hmm????? surely it didn't crash already.
bought this disk to replace my OS disk that died in my desktop computer. My wife's Dell laptop has a hybrid drive and I loved the insane startup time. So I gave this drive a try and I can say I am deeply impressed. Well done Seagate! !
If you use a higher end computer speed increases might be hard to notice because the increase isn't from slow to fast, its fast to fastER. They say t hat the drive becomes faster as it "learns" what you access most but there was a profound difference in read and write times on the large files I work with.
Best purchase I have made in years. The speed increase is off the charts. I use this in my gaming pc and have notice a huge difference from a 7200 rpm WD.
I won't try to explain it as there are far smarter people that can do it much better than me. I just thought I'd throw that out there so you know what to look for if you need help doing it.In terms of speed, I have to say it's a pretty fast transfer speed. I noticed an increase in speed from my normal 1 TB Seagate drive.
Answer: The 1TB and 2TB versions of this drive are 7200RPM, the 4TB version is 5900RPM.  REF: http://www.seagate.com/www-content/product-content/sshd-fam/desktop-sshd/en-us/docs/100726566c.pdf
