1TB SSHD for laptops

The Seagate ST1000LM014 is a 2.5-inch solid-state hybrid drive with a 5400 RPM spindle and 8GB of NAND flash. It connects over SATA 6.0Gb/s and fits the standard 9.5mm bay found in most notebooks. The 64MB cache helps smooth everyday workloads.

Upgrade from a plain hard drive

Replacing a conventional 5400 RPM laptop drive with this SSHD gives faster boot and application load times thanks to the flash cache. The jump is worth it when you want SSD-like responsiveness without giving up a full terabyte of storage space. Average seek time is under 12.0ms.

Suits capacity-first notebook users

This drive suits buyers who need maximum internal capacity in a single 2.5-inch slot and prefer the simplicity of one SATA device. It is not for systems that require a 7mm z-height, for workloads demanding sustained SSD write speeds, or for buyers who want a pure flash drive with no moving parts.

Questions about this item

Will the 9.5 mm height of this 2.5 inch drive fit my laptop bay?

Yes, the drive measures 9.5 mm tall, 69.85 mm wide and 100.35 mm long, matching the standard 2.5 inch 9.5 mm laptop form factor.

What is the correct way to initialise the 8 GB NAND cache after connecting the SATA cable?

Install the operating system normally; the hybrid controller automatically learns boot and application patterns and populates the 8 GB flash without any user partitioning or formatting steps.

How often should I expect to replace the drive given the 5400 RPM spindle and 8 GB flash portion?

The 5400 RPM mechanical section and 8 GB NAND are rated for typical laptop workloads; replace when SMART attributes indicate reallocated sectors or when performance drops below your needs.
