Seagate Announces First Hybrid Hard Drive 243

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Wednesday June 07, 2006 @01:38PM from the closer-to-instant-gratification dept.

writertype writes "Today, Seagate announced about a dozen new products, including its first hybrid laptop hard drive that includes a 256-Mbyte flash chip to save power and speed up the time a notebook recovers from hibernation. Interestingly, the new Momentus 5400 PSD has also exceeded earlier estimates of hybrid hard-drive performance, which said that such drives would add an extra hour to the typical battery life of a notebook PC."

It would be great if an artist without a label could also hook into this service, so 5 million OS X users could have a shot at your song instead of the 30 people that go to the local bar.

Although this sounds like a good idea, I doubt it will work when it really catches on. If there are thousands of unsigned artists how would you find one you actually like? Perhaps an independent music rating/categorizing system should be implemented to remedy this problem.
