In my opinion a SSD+HDD would be a better option, as SSHDs are a bit lackluster and you usually get about 8GB of SSD storage with them.

SSHDs are really only good for laptops and devices that only have one bay 

 

Get the biggest SSD you can afford and add a HDD in later

SSD+HDD is the definite choice. SSHDs sound tempting but having one for pure speed and one for mass storage is far more beneficial than getting one that's kind of in between and leaning towards mass storage.
