ASUS sets SSD record with S121 netbook
Written by Andreas G 07 January 2009 15:14

ASUS S121 is one of the highly mobile and more exclusive notebooks ASUS will offer in 2009. The 12" display makes it a bit bigger than the budget Eee PC series. Even if its the exact same processor powering the computer, Intel Atom, there are some considerable differences between the two. S121 comes with up to 2GB RAM and sports both WiFi and Bluetooth but the biggest difference compared to ASUS' previous ultramobile computers is the longterm storage. Solid State Drives can be found in other models from ASUS, even its budget-oriented Eee PC-family, but ASUS S121 will take things to a whole new level.

ASUS will offer the biggest SSD available, a 512GB model, most likely from Toshiba. This would make ASUS S121 one of the most expensive netbooks around, but we're almost certain people wouldn't mind 512GB of SSD storage. We have no information on when the computer will appear, but if you want it you'd better start saving up.
