SSD Speed with HDD Capacity
Intel Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance by
®
using an installed fast SSD (min 18.6GB available capacity required) as
a cache for frequently accessed data. Key benefits include reduced load
and wait times, and lower power consumption through the elimination
of unnecessary hard drive spin. This technology combines SSD
performance with hard drive capacity, operating up to 6X faster than a
hard drive-only system.
®
* Intel Smart Response Technology is supported by 3rd/2nd generation Intel
Core™ processor family on Windows
** Operating systems must be installed on the HDD to launch Intel
Response Technology.
The capacity of the SSD is reserved for caching function.
