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>>
