The few remaining spinning drives I have that I'd use as a boot drive are 
Seagate Barracudas - they're 500gb hybrid SATA drives, a standard SATA drive 
with 4GB of cache stuck on the side. They boot up like a normal drive, but 
once the cache fills up, feel like halfway between an SSD and a SATA drive 
with regards to speed. They were a nice compromise between speed and cost 
before SSD prices came down.
