Would an hybrid SSHD be any good ? I am considering getting one with PS4pro.

 

DigitalFoundry have done some test on the ps4. the hydrid is a few seconds behind the ssd.

PS4 Loading Times

 

PS4 Game Performance

 

Here is one from Seagate themselves.

SSHD vs SSD vs HDD Gaming Showdown

Well according to these tests, the Hybrid is the worst of the bunch for perfmance and only sometimes makes a real world noticeable difference in load times. However, no matter how you slice it it is not worth the increase in price over an HDD. 

The best thing you can do for a PS4 is to get the largest drive possibe and if the price diffrence is marginal, go for the  7,200 RPM version.

When it comes to PC's, the Hybrid drives are great for system boot times but not much else and an SSD is always worth the investment since the performance and load time differences are very significant. (taken from experience)
