   I found this article on Hybrid drives. When will these be available for desktops? Everything seems to be for notebooks.

   I'd expect to see a desktop model around the same time, but for certain they will be released before Windows Vista, as some versions of this OS are going to require these types of drives.

   I really cannot wait for NAND tech to be fully used in HDs and do away with the platters and heads.... near Zero wait times
