Asus Eee PC

[John Kotches]

Scott's comment about speed with his SSD card had me a bit concerned about going with an SSD driven device. Do you think his experience was abnormal? I read that users were able to disable compression on the SSD and this helped improve performance. Would this be the difference between the time it took to install his Sprint software?

The SSD hard drives are testing out in the 100+ MB/sec range for reads and anywhere from 40-75 100MB / sec writes for consumer grade SSDs.

The SSDs that Scott refers to aren't the same as are in SSD "hard" drives.

Not a EEE PC, but we just picked up an MSI Wind for $350.
