Ultrabook Makers To Use Hybrid HDD’s To Reduce Costs

Intel’s Ultrabook platform is designed to bring super slim notebooks which are fast to boot up to consumers for under $1,000, although many of the hardware manufacturers have struggled to produce ultrabooks for below the $1,000 mark, one of the major costs of the devices is SSD’s.

Last week we heard about Acer’s Aspire S3 Ultrabook, which uses a hybrid SSD and HDD, with a 20GB SSD and a 320GB HDD, Acer were able to release their base model for $899.
