The eXtreme Power Supply Calculator is a great resource for figuring out what PSU you should get for your system. They have the power requirement information for almost all hardware on the consumer market and the results are generally pretty close to real world measurements. The recommended size accounts for the maximum regular power consumption of the components selected plus a small margin for capacitor aging for a couple of years.

Well, the drive cache on a SSD or HDD is pretty much like RAM, it's used temporarily to transfer the data (the CPU sends chunks of data to the cache so it don't have to wait for the drive to process every single bytes, as the CPU is much faster) and it is usually in quite small capacity (usually 32MB or 64MB). SSD caching and Hybrid drives are basically copying the most used data form the HDD to the SSD so it can deliver this data faster using the SSD instead of the slow HDD, when available.

The Seagate Momentus XT is pretty much a SSD caching drive: It's a standard HDD with a small SSD used for caching the most used files. This type of hybrid drive is very useful for laptops as there's often only room for a single 2.5" drive, so it gives a balance between a fast SSD with limited capacity and slow HDD with large capacity. I was wondering if SSD caching has better performances than Hybrid HDDs - would be interesting to get some benchmarks.

What do you need to know about those cables/ Molexx is specifically most commonly used for powering case fans( in older days of 2005,2004 and earlier...they powered older hard drives like ide ata133 & ata100 hard drives & older cd rom, cd burner, dvd rom optical 5.25 inch drives. Those were replaced by Serial ata ( or sata) drives and sata cables which are MUCH smaller and much more efficient. 6pin provides 50watts wile 8 pin provides 75 watts, Pci Express x16 provides 75 watts in addition.

If the efficiency CAN go down when the power of your psu doesn't match the draw of the system, then having an overpowered psu for a system, would cost you more money in electricity bills than just getting the right one.

+T Soft Efficiency goes by percentage. The max theoretical efficiency is just shy of 100%. You can't pull 50 watts from the wall and get 500 watts magically. And when a conversion is done, some power is lost as heat. Anyway, power supplies work by taking x amount of watts, cutting the voltage and sending it to the different components of your computer through multiple rails. The PSU will take x amount of watts multiplied by the efficiency level of the power supply at the current percentage of its maximum continuous output wattage.

I can't see why others think the way they do, so I cannot really see this as complicated. About the only thing I can see that is at all 'different' is there are two types of percentages talked about one being efficiency and one being percentage of full power. What is possibly 'confusing' is the two are not differentiated so there is talk of 89% at 80% (89% efficient at delivery of 80% of full power).

Obviously, a regular SSD will be better, as SSD caching and Hybrid drives will only cache the most used files and program, so you won't benefit from the speed on less used files, and while transferring files too (unless they're files you transfer on a regular basis). SSD caching and Hybrid drives are often a budget solution to get quick boot times/program start while having a good amount of storage (a 32GB SSD + 1TB HDD will cost about the price of a 120GB SSD if you know where to look).
