2 separate drives, or an earlier hybrid drive?
From what I've read, the earlier hybrid drives required the OS to be involved, and apparently only Windows supported it.

Hybrid hard drives (H-HDDs) arrived in 2007, and they disappeared soon after because there was hardly any real benefit. Today, Seagate unveils a new type of hybrid that is similar to the initial H-HDD concept. However, the new Momentus XT does not rely on operating system support, and hence should be more versatile.
