Flash is a combination drive. All your most used files are put on the smaller SSD drive portion and the remainder that aren't accessed that often on the regular and bigger hard drive part.

It's very fast and effective.

You couldn't be more wrong. What you are taking about is a Fusion Drive. An SSD is the essentially a flash drive.

OP - Get a Mac with an SSD no matter what. Buying a computer with a spinning HDD in 2016 is a no-no. Also all Macs are due for an upgrade except the MacBook. If you can hang on till September or October, I would wait.

That would be a fusion drive not a flash drive.
