I'm not a fan of hybrid drives. You either maximize density or speed where hybrid do neither.
Are SSD's worth it?
It's worth having one big enough for your OS. I don't find that having games installed on it really improves my experience (read: I don't have more fun, obviously it improves load times)
Windows boots rather fast out of the HDD after a fresh install, but as time goes on it can start to chug (By the time I replaced my old computer it needed 3 and a half minutes to boot). I've owned a SSD for over a year and it remains as fast as when I first got it.
I also turn my computer off every night. If you keep it on all the time I suppose an SSD wouldn't be a very significant upgrade.
