10,000 RPM 3.5" drives VS. 3.5" SSHD's

Which one should I get?

The Raptor drive?

or

This Seagate SSHD?

I'm going to assume go with the SSHD, I just wonder why the Raptor drive is more it's older technology and (I think?) it is slower.

There's no point in getting raptors these days; you're better off just getting a big SSD.

What's it for? That's the main question.

What the HDD will be used for?
If u want performance pick SSD, if u want storage pick any large HDD, if u want good both pick some good HDD + SSD and put them into Intel's Smart Response Technology.

I understand that this posting is from 2014, However, I know there are many other people coming over to PC and intent on building one for themselves.

So,... If your request is something a kin the OP, then you may want the Updated drive that came out in 2016 which is the FIRECUDE brand of SSHD, It's disk spins 7200rpm as apposed to 5400rpm as many other SSHD's out there spin at.
