2TB Desktop SSHD for fast boot and load times

The Seagate ST2000DX001 combines a 2TB hard disk with 8GB of MLC NAND flash in a 3.5-inch form factor. It connects via SATA 6.0Gb/s and includes 64MB cache. Average seek and write times are under 9.5ms. The drive is new and ships as a bare unit.

Suits builders who want SSD-like responsiveness

This hybrid drive targets desktop users who need 2000GB of space and faster boot or game loading than a standard hard disk delivers. Buyers who require pure solid-state latency, higher sequential throughput or a 2.5-inch form factor should consider other options.

8GB integrated NAND flash cache

The 8GB MLC flash layer stores frequently accessed data to accelerate boot and application launch. It operates transparently over the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface without software setup. This cache size is the key specification that determines the performance uplift over a conventional hard drive.

Questions about this item

Does the bare-drive package include any cables, brackets or mounting screws, or must they be purchased separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare unit only; SATA data cable, power cable and mounting screws are not included and must be sourced separately.

Which capacity version of this Desktop SSHD should I choose if I want the 2 TB model with 8 GB of MLC NAND flash?

This specific model ST2000DX001 provides exactly 2 TB of hard-disk capacity paired with 8 GB of integrated MLC NAND flash.

What does the quoted 9.5 ms average seek time mean for real-world boot and application loading?

Combined with the 8 GB NAND cache and 64 MB DRAM, the sub-9.5 ms seek time helps deliver SSD-like responsiveness, with Windows 8 booting in under 10 seconds and up to five times faster performance than a standard desktop hard drive.
