ASUS var den första tillverkaren som i större utsträckning började använda Solid State Drives i sina netbooks. Det är helt rätt sett till strömförbrukning men samtidigt är priset något som talar emot SSD-tekniken i denna mycket budgetinriktade marknad. Men ASUS S101 Eee PC är något av en exklusivare netbook som från fabrik levereras med en 16GB SSD. SuperTalent har insett att många inte bara vill ha en större SSD utan även en snabbare, varpå man nu lanserat tre uppgraderingsalternativ. Med lagringskapacitet på maximalt 64GB och en läs- och skrivhastighet på 90MB/s resp. 55MB/s.

Super Talent Releases SSD Upgrade for Asus S101 Eee PC
Add Up to 64GB of Solid State Storage in Minutes
San Jose, California January 28, 2009 Super Talent Technology, a leading manufacturer of Flash storage solutions and DRAM memory modules, today launched an SSD, offered in capacities up to 64GB, that was specially designed as an upgrade for the Asus S101 Eee PC.
The Windows® model of the S101 includes only 16GB of local storage, so Super Talents upgrade SSD offers the S101 user the opportunity to double or quadruple the storage capacity in his netbook.

FPM32RSE | 32GB | 90/55 MB/sec |

This new SSD has been rigorously tested in Super Talents compatibility labs for both performance and functionality to ensure it meets Super Talents high quality standards. With a SATA interface, it delivers impressive 90 MB/sec max sequential read speeds and up to 55 MB/sec write speeds.
Joe James, Super Talents director of marketing noted, You can never have enough storage space. This is sure to be a popular upgrade for the S101.
All three models are shipping now. The 64GB model will retail for approximately $169.
