In addition to the couple of Guardian series HDDs, Seagate also unveiled its new SSHD hybrid that will be a part of the same series, the Seagate FireCuda.

The new Seagate FireCuda solid state hybrid drive (SSHD) will be available in 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch form-factors and will be available in 2TB and 1TB capacities for the 3.5-inch and 500GB and 1TB capacity for the 2.5-inch version.

Backed by a 5-year warranty, these FireCuda SSHDs offer 8GB of MLC flash storage, have 64MB of cache and should offer performance of up to 210MB/s, with the NAND part peaking at 190MB/s. These should provide faster boot time, have better performacne and should appeal to gamers, workstation users and creative professionals.

The Seagate Guardian Series FireCuda SSHDs are not yet available and should be coming soon so we do not have precise information regarding the price but hopefully we will hear more about them soon.
