Hybrid Hard Disk Boot And Resume
Hard Disk Controller
NV Cache
Motherboard
DRAM
ATA Controller
Windows Vista OS
During shutdown or hibernate all the disk sectors needed to boot or resume are pinned into the NV cache
On next power on the BIOS POST runs and the disk is powered on but the spindle won’t be ready for 2-4 seconds
BIOS can read data from the NV cache and all boot process IO can be read from the NV Cache
Once the rotating media is ready IO can be satisfied by both NV Cache and rotating media for optimized read performance

Spun down 60% of time
4% battery saved or 12min on 5 hour battery
Idle Example:
1.3W HDD spun-up
0.3W HDD spun-down
8W typical laptop
Spun down 95% of time
12% battery saved or 36 min on 5 hour battery

21. Increased Ruggedness And Reliability
4/19/2017 3:50 AM
Increased Ruggedness And Reliability
Ruggedness
When drive is spun down it is much more resilient to damageThe resulting behavior of a hybrid hard disk is to write less data with fewer seeks to the magnetic platter with a reduced duty cycle and should increase the MTBF of the HDD
Reliability
Lower operating temperature and key component use could lead to significantly better mean time before failure
Warranty and support savings could potentially cover some or all of the cost of NV Cache
