Hello everyone!
Long time reading, first time asking!
First of all, thank you everyone, for so many Q&A. You are really useful to the world, helping people how to fix and configure their own equipment. You're all great! And now, it's my turn to do a Question (and who knows, maybe one day I'm able to give an answer too...).
Because of a recent problem with my laptop (SSD+HDD configuration), the HDD has died, so, I have two questions:
1) I am planing to buying a new 2.5-Inch, to put together my 125GB SSD in my laptop. I've planed to pay arround 100$ to the new drive. I'd like to ask you wether to buy an HDD or an SSHD drive.
My current options are:
HD
HGST Travelstar 2.5-Inch 1TB 7200RPM SATA 6GB/s 32MB Cache
SSHD
Seagate 1TB Solid State Hybrid Drive SATA 6Gbps 64MB Cache 2.5-Inch ST1000LM014
Is it worth to buy an SSHD instead of an HDD? Which one is better? Both of them cost arround 90$ in amazon. Do you suggest me to buy any of those in other place (not amazon?).
2) My HDD is still under warantee, so I was wondering If I would be able to buy a USB 3.0 To 2.5-Inch Sata to be able to use my current HDD (once that it's replaced by the warantee) as an external drive.
Thank you very much guys, any help would be highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Barroman
