Oh right. Perhaps I was just apprehensive as one website talked about very complex methods of installing Windows 7 onto an SSD. Guess I should stop reading articles <smiles>.

Hi Chris.Excuse me, but you can install an operating system on an SSD drive. Some Asus netbooks come with SSD drives, and although not very large, they do have plenty of room for general but not multimedia computer use and the OS is preinstalled on the flash drive.All the best, Ibrahim.----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 03, 2009 4:17 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: NC10 and solid state drivesSounds good. But I hear there are disadvantages so probably won't move to SSD till the sizes are larger enough to install an operating system on it.-- Chris Hallsworth e-mail: christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN: ch9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 Join TAFN by visiting www.tafn.org.uk.----- Original Message ----- From: "Ibrahim Gucukoglu" <ibrahim_gucukoglu@xxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 03, 2009 4:01 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: NC10 and solid state drivesHi Chris.Three mainly, speed, durability and power saving. Because an SSD drive is memory based, there are no moving parts unlike a traditional hard drive which means they are practically indestructible and need less power. Also, with today's high speed models, you can get drives with 250MBPS read speeds and 160MBPS righting speeds, nearly twice as fast as the fastest raptor hard drives which spin at anything from 7200 to 10000 RPM.All the best, Ibrahim.----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 03, 2009 3:56 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: NC10 and solid state drivesWhy would you want to do this?
