Overview
SaberTooth™ SSDs are custom designed for netbook PC upgrades.
The SaberTooth S3, based on the latest SMI SATA-NAND controller, offers
excellent sequential read and write performance combined with excellent
random transfer speeds and sub-millisecond access speeds. This is
an excellent way to ugrade the performance and expand storage capacity
in Asus S101, 900, 900A and 901 EeePC netbooks. It delivers 3X faster
read and 4X faster write speeds than the default drive so you can
enjoy lightning fast bootups and application load times. With the
gains in performance and storage space you'll unleash the true functionality
of the Eee PC. The SaberTooth S3 is available in 16, 32 and 64 GB
capacities.

Early BIOS revisions of the Eee PC do
not support SATA SSDs, so we reccomend upgrading your Eee PC to the
newest BIOS before installing the SaberTooth. If you don't have at
least this BIOS revision you need to upgrade to a newer BIOS: Eee
PC 900: BIOS rev 0906 or newer; Eee PC 900A: BIOS rev 0703 or newer;
Eee PC 901: BIOS rev 1808 or newer.

The SaberTooth 32GB SSD drive we tested here gave us over twice the
performance and eight times the capacity of our stock drive and at
$99 represents excellent value for money for most netbook owners who
have concerns over the performance and lack of free space on their
stock SSD drives. We have no hesitation in awarding the SaberTooth
32GB SSD our Gold Award. more>>
