Booting with a Seagate Momentus XT Hybrid

Booting a MacBook Pro 13" 2011 - 2,3 i5 with a new Seagate Momentus XT Hybrid Drive.
A Hybrid Drive uses 4GB of Flash memory to store commonly used applications or booting sequence. The more you use a certain application, the faster it will launch.
In this video the system boots within 20 seconds, now it boots within 14 seconds! Overall it is not as fast as an SSD (because it is just a normal harddrive) but it is a big difference in speed compared to the standard 5400 rpm drive.
Seagate Momentus XT 500GB, 7200RPM, 32MB Cache, 4GB Flash.

@bravothemexican Because it's a 7200RPM hdd the battery is depleted quicker than a norma 5400RPM hard drive... how much exactly i don't know I Would say i could make it 5 till 6 hours on a full charge depending what i'm doing off course. The old hard drive I still own in case this one would break down.
You could buy a 2.5 external hard disk casing to fit in the old hard disk so you could make back-ups or something like that.
