SSD is better if you wants more battery power and shock resistant drive. HDD is if you wanted more storage.

In the ends its depends on your usage.

dude ... if you see it the 80gb 1000H ... my advice is ... FASTER GRAB IT!

i cant find the 1000H 80gb in low yat d ... i manage to snatch one of the last ones in low yat....

and its 1799

Hey the maximum Memory Ram for 901 is 1 GB or 2 GB?

dont think its 1gb since i'm using 2gb ram right now.

online from a mamak stall. hehe.

Hey how much is the price of 901 right now? BTW : Where did you buy it and how much is the price? & Windows occupies how many space?

Lucky but how about the price?

kewl ... which mamak can go online one ... free wifi ? or broadband usb?

i finally got mine at a shop in Digital Mall, PJ. it was about 1.6k, and it took me weeks to search for it, since 901 is already a rare sights at that time. esp the white one.

the windows would occupy most of the 4GB allocated for windows, but with a little tweaking, you can have SP3 and all .NET framework (which i cant live without, since most programs I used needs these) and still have 1GB+ left on C.

How many Drives are there? C only or C Drive + D Drive?

better get hdd than the ssd

first you get bigger storage size, and secondly with the slow processor you wouldnt gain any improvement on ssd, on top of it the ssd is the low-end version...

hdd is the better choice

how many of you actually accidently drop your laptop b4? if it drop, not only the hdd will damage, lcd most probably also will damage

I somehow disagree. SSD is faster (the boot-up between SSD and HD shows that), and saves more battery than HD. And its a lot less noisy than HD (no spinning disk).

And its not about dropping your laptop. Its about bumps you usually get when your bag (i assume you keep the eee in a bag) accidently hits other places such as your desk, lrt doors, or when you place your bag on the floor, sometimes you drop it too harshly etc. It may seem tiny bumps, but it would hurt the hard disk.

If you look at it, eee doesnt really cater for high end games. or video/graphic editing tools. Which was the ones with the largest space consumption for a pc really. 12 gig SSD should be more than enough for casual user.

Like I said. It depends on the user which one is the better choice. The HCSD and ext hard disk can be used for storage. And i have a full fledge system at home to cater for permanent storage of files.

Alright does anyone know any shop selling S101 in Malaysia, KL. Please include price & address please. Thank you.

[PS: IF you don't want to post the address & Price please PM me then Thanks]
