Hlsd vs Vlsd

I wonder if there will be a big difference between hlsd and vlsd in my new tranny. Word is that once the fluids heat up the lsd becomes less and less apparent. Any input is well appreciated.

VLSD uses fluid that locks the diff when it warms up. HLSD uses clutch/gears to lock the diff.
