Got one of these Hybrid drives earlier this year, am pretty happy with it.
Thanks SithMaster!

I've been waiting for a nice deal on a 250GB SSD for my Asus K55A notebook, I was thinking and considering this hybrid drive but I have a feeling this will reduce battery life compared to the stock 5400 I have now, and I was actually hoping to go the opposite direction and get more battery life with an SSD... Has anyone who got one of these in a laptop noticed a large decrease in battery life after installing this?

from my experience this drive is crap. After a few weeks it tries to optimize and blue screen start being frequent. I will RMA mine and hope for the best.
How do you know the drive is the issue, what was the blue screen error code ? Did you run seatools or get a smart report ? Was bios set to AHCI ? What firmware version ?
Just curious...
