Jealous your almost instantly-obsolete Eee PC doesn't have that speedy new SSD with integrated controller ASUS is using in newer models?

Well, Runcore's got you covered -- it's just launched a line of MLC SSDs with similar integrated controllers that offer 70Mbps read and 50Mbps write speeds.

Pricing varys based on the four offered capacities of course, but here's the rundown:

* 16GB = $69
* 32GB = $119
* 64GB = $199
* 128GB = $389

This is for all first timers and if I can do it then anyone else can do it.

I had no previous experience in soldering so I did my homework and I practiced here http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=36326

OK, Lets start ...

Here are all the pictures I took while doing the installation for you reference.

The first picture shows the standard swipe-style fingerprintreader that I used. It is the Eikon digital privacy manager which comes with a software package by Upek. I prefer the Upek package over most other fingerprintreader packages I've seen so far because it allows me to assign applications to fingers, login at windows, it has some linux support and it tracks my passwords for websites in both IE and Firefox (though not Firefox 3.0 yet - they're working on that at the moment). The device's outward appearance makes it seem rather bulky, but the actual electronics inside of it are really quite small.

I am proud to announce that the Internal ZIF connector WORKS!!!
I will be updating this first posts with new findings... so please read this post first!

This tutorial will aid you to a larger capacity EeePC 901 using the built-in ZIF connector, this is in no way an idiot proof guide, but will give you enough idea as to what your options are.

This feature is NOT for everyone, if you dont like it, dont do it, this thread is for people who does and for those interested and have questions.

Double your fun in the removable media storage department for bigger media collections and more boot flexibility

just wanted to post success with fido's hub, though I modified the wires to put the hub under the MOB and add two usb plugs under the RAM door. it's true that practice makes perfect... got this mod. done, with all the resoldering in under 2 hours!

it was a very long run from the hub back up to the webcam, so if possible, it might be better to keep the hub up in the lid.... but then I would have had two fairly long runs back down under the MOB for the usb plugs...

I wanted an internal USB flash drive, but did not want to open up the unit (other than the memory access door) or solder anything to the board. I wanted the mod to be 100% reversable, with no traces left at all, thus preserving the warranty. A tall order perhaps? Not as it turns out.

I was looking at my eee the other day (a new white 4g, without a flash connector in the memory bay), and pondered the 3 usb ports. Too bad, I said to no one but me, that one of those couldn't somehow be accessed from the memory door area; after all, I can't imagine using all 3 of them at once, ever. Looking at the ports on the right side, I noticed the two little metal tabs in the bottom of each port; through the small gap around each tab, I could see light coming through the vent under the wlan card. I wondered further whether four small wires could pass through the gaps around those little tabs, under the wlan card (or over it, if you've turned your eee upside down by now), and into the open flash bay. I tested with a bit of solid wire, and found I could easily guide a wire into the flash bay; there's nothing obstructing the path.

ASUS' diminutive sub-notebook, the Eee PC, has so far exceeded expectations and is sold out virtually everywhere. Its simple interface and wallet-friendly pricing have contributed to making the Eee the most popular gadget this season.

this is a collection of my summaries of the eeeuser forum, after reading and posting for about 2 months.

hopefully, this can be a starting point for new forum users. there is a HUGE amount of experience here, so please use the search function so you don't ask questions that were already answered several times.

please excuse me if I didn't reference you and you were an earlier poster than december 2007, as I didn't routinely have to search that far back in the forum.
