Aka meaning that it takes a few boots for the SD part to learn the booting ability. So at first boot, you won't notice much difference. But after like 3-5cycles you'll basically see the drive boot as fast as a SSD basically. Maybe 1-5seconds less fast as a pure SDD. but This boots on par with SSD's. **Q: Is this a hybrid drive like the 1 GB version with the same name??** A: I believe it probably is because the 2tb version is a hybrid drive too **Q: What is the the difference between seagate st500lxz25 and st500lx025 ?** A: FireCuda Gaming SSHD has built-in Caching memory of 80GB which stores recent accessed file by the PC into the cache memory for faster loading to the PC memory without reading required file from hard disk surface, which provided fastest loading and execution. My personal experience, I used Firecuda in my PC and I can tell it is now 10 times faster than other hard disks when loading, executing programs and files. **Q: Should i opt for more cache in the 1tb or more space in the 2 tb?** A: Depends. Again there's too many factors but if u want to access info faster solid states drive r the best option. If u want balance the 1tb or the 2tb. at the end the diff on speed is small between the 2 cuz if u use the same data all the time it will be alocated in the SD part of the HD it's kind of a trade off but again solid state will be faster. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Will buy again great hard drive *by B***O on May 28, 2019* Had this hard drive now over a year as a mobile Xbox One hard drive. This thing works well is still fast enough you can’t tell it’s not a internal hard drive. Not a single issue in over a year of being used every single day.

These drives have a 5-year warranty, are almost 5X faster than the stock Apple HD. Great alternative to an SSD for people on a budget, but who want a performance bump. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great compromise between HDD and SSD *by R***1 on August 27, 2017* My wife's 2014 MacMini had the original 5400RPM HDD. After much debating on SSD vs. 7200RPM HDD vs. SSHD I went with this. I couldn't justify the cost of an SSD but needed the speed increase. So far it's working VERY WELL! The SSD caching for the most commonly used applications does make a big difference in startup and opening applications. It however is not an IMMEDIATE speed increase. The OS will determine what is most often accessed and move them to the SSD cache. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seagate FireCuda ST500LX025 500GB SATA 6.0 GB/s 64MB Hard Drive (2.5 inch) - Kingston 480GB A400 SATA 3 2.5" Internal SSD SA400S37/480G - HDD Replacement for Increase Performance - Thermaltake SMART 600W ATX 12V V2.3/EPS 12V 80 Plus Certified Active PFC Power Supply PS-SPD-0600NPCWUS-W --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/36497174-seagate-firecuda-st500lx025-500gb-sata-6-0-gb-s-64mb](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/36497174-seagate-firecuda-st500lx025-500gb-sata-6-0-gb-s-64mb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
