mini pci-e ssd pata drives

[Cornholio]

Any idea where to get one from ? Scan just says " Call for price " or something like that...they are an online retailer..why cant they just put the price up there .

Its to go in a little dell netbook.

Dell Netbooks only take very small SSD drives. Even smaller than normal. The best place to get one is memoryc.com - that's where I got mine (which I'm currently selling on eBay).

16GB - http://www.memoryc.com/storage/solid...dellmini9.html
32GB - http://www.memoryc.com/storage/solid...dellmini9.html
64GB - http://www.memoryc.com/storage/solid...dellmini9.html

You can also get a compatible drive from crucial.com, but they're much slower.

Cheers mate il get the 16gb one ordered, never heard of the brand runcore though ? Any good ?

Should fit the 8.5" dell mini shouldnt it, looks very similar...i can always vernier gauge the other one to see if its 50mm i suppose.

Much much faster than the standard ones, and come with a miniUSB port to allow for fast installation/cloning etc.

Do they fit ?

[b0redom]

No idea. Maybe Google it? I would stick to the Runcore drives though as they're known to work.

The ocz was too long, ordered a runcore 16gb. Cheers for your help boredom.

I apologize for being a lazy bum but how do these compare to a standard SATA SDD? They seem to be rougly the same price so what is their appeal? I take it, it is performance related?
