So what is the communis opinio on SSD/HDD hybrids, like this Toshiba MQ02ABF050H (pictured). I'm struggling to find reviews, all I see is buzzwords so I'm naturally wary of buying one.
Do they offer any advantage over e.g. a 7200 RPM Hitachi HDD? I know they are certainly cheaper than buying a 128 GB SSD + a caddy for the ODD - HDD swap.

Hybrids are dumb.
I made the mistake of buying an SSHD, please don't do that
Just don't buy hybrids. Just don't.

they are shit of both worlds

Oh my god.. No, OP, don't. Doon't!
Nooo!
What's the point of one? Just get a nice tiny little 5400RPM drive for storage if you torrent like mad. Or be sensible and just run single 240GB SSDs.

Just a glorified HDD, not worth the money

Okay, thanks /g/uys. I won't. Do you have a moment to explain why?
