Seagate Momentus XT 750GB hybrid drive

This 2.5 inch solid-state hybrid drive combines 750GB of traditional storage with 8GB of SLC NAND flash to accelerate boot and application loads. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 32MB cache and connects via SATA 6.0Gb/s for broad laptop and desktop compatibility.

Installing the bare drive in a 9.5mm bay

The all-in-one design fits any standard 2.5 inch SATA bay and requires no extra cables or software. The bare-drive packaging means no mounting screws or bracket are included, so reuse the hardware from the old drive. The supplier notes that up to 25 bad sectors may be present and the label colour may differ from the photo.

Check bay height and SATA generation before ordering

Verify that your laptop or PC accepts a 9.5mm high 2.5 inch drive and provides a SATA 6.0Gb/s port to get the rated interface speed. The drive was erased to DoD 5220.22 M standard and ships unformatted, so you must partition and format it during OS installation.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the Momentus XT ST750LX003 is caching data correctly after installation?

The drive should boot and load applications noticeably faster than a standard 7200 RPM hard drive as the 8GB SLC NAND cache learns your usage patterns over the first few restarts.

What is included with the bare-drive ST750LX003 and what must I source separately?

You receive the 2.5 inch hybrid drive only; a SATA data cable, power connection, mounting screws and any cloning software must be supplied by you or your laptop.

Which capacity version of the Momentus XT hybrid drive should I choose for a laptop upgrade?

This model provides 750GB of storage combined with 8GB of SLC NAND flash, the only capacity offered for this ST750LX003 part number.
