All about laptops and netbook!
SSDs on the cheap from Intel and Kingston, your netbook will thank you
One of the easiest ways to bump the speed of your netbook is to replace the hard drive from the platter-based HDD to a flash-based SSD. It gives you a speedier boot as well as faster application launching to keep its performance at par with your main computer.
Kingston announced that they will be including a cheaper, smaller SSD under the Kingston SSDNow V+ line. The SSD will be 2.5″ 30GB and will give you 180MB/s read speed and 50MB/s write speed. It’s going to be available in February and will be just $79.99 after rebates.
Intel is also offering a smaller capacity 40GB SSD under their X25-V Value line. It has a slower speed (170MB/s read, 35MB/s write) but it is already available now for ordering. You can grab it at Amazon for around $120.
