Hot off the heels of the Seagate Momentus 750GB hard drive review, we're following that up with the Momentus XT of the same capacity. If you recall from our review on the Momentus XT 500GB a little under two years ago, the this line of drives are hybrids of SSDs and HDDs that are intended to give SSD-like performance with HDD price and capacity. It's been a popular design as Seagate has informed us that they've sold over 1 million hybrid drives word wide. We felt the drive held a lot of promise and value but still had a ways to go before approaching the performance numbers across the board of an SSD. Now that the newest generation is out, we'll see how that compares to a number of different drives from pure hard drives to pure SSDs as well as the original 500GB XT drive we tested. According to Seagate, we should see a 1.5x increase in performance.
