16GB SuperTalent 1.3" IDE/Pata ZIF interface SSD Solid State Disk for Acer Aspire One netbook by Super Talent

This is a 'drop in' replacement for the SSD on the Acer Aspire One netbook PC. Once installed the operating system WinXP Home was re-installed from the discs and the results were very pleasing. Faster than the original drive the performance is greatly improved. I was going to sell this little notebook on but fell in love with it again and won't part with it... J.Gutteridge 17/4/12

The old slow ssd on my aspire expired. I replaced it with this one and it worked a treat.

This was the trickiest hardware upgrade I have ever done, but it was still quite straight forward. I searched for details and video's on youtube before I started and then just took my time. Be warned you have to take your netbook apart to replace the disk.

My old ssd had given up the ghost and it was a few weeks before I replaced it so I cannot comment on the speed increase but it does feel faster. I also added an extra 1gb of ram while I was there which also would have helped.

I installed ubuntu netbook remix once the upgrade was complete and it works like a dream.

no more IO waits
firefox now rocks !

I ordered this drive to replace the standard 8G samsung SSD that ships with the Aspire One. This drive is more spacious and significantly faster. The old drive (which was dying) had write speeds of between 0.5 and 5 MB/s. This drive handles writes at about 10 to 20 MB/s.

Fitting the drive involves dismantling the AA1 but the new drive fits the existing mounts perfectly (the drive is fractionally smaller). It came pre-formatted as FAT32 and was recognised on boot up with no problems.

All in all it does exactly what expected for a reasonable price.

Lastly the service from MemoryC was exemplary with the delivery arriving when expected and in good condition.

This is a most excellent product!! and has totally speeded up what was a useless Aspire One Netbook!! it is the fastest SSD Card that is on the market at present and leaves other SSD Cards standing!! without it My Acer Aspire One Netbook would have been rendered totally useless, and I would have been really stuck without it!! Now I have one of the fastest Acer Aspire One Netbooks in The UK!! Thank You So Much Memory C

Would recommend this upgrade to anyone who owns an Acer Aspire netbook with ssd drive.
Had XP installed on the original drive and it was pretty much unusable.
Flies along now with this upgrade installed.

Excelent product! Works fine with Acer Aspire One Notebook A110. Logon Windows XP - 21 seconds. Shutdown - 7 seconds.

The a110L with 8g linux turned out to be rather hopeless. The original distro sucked and Ubuntu was also slowish. Xp was totally unusable, even with all possible tweaks. A 1.8" hard drive or some other std. small form factor SSD has been demonstrated, but looked to me exessivly complicated and expensive. This unit fitted right in, no problems whatsoever, apart from the tedious disassembly routine of the A110L. It now runs superb with XP and Ubuntu 9.10 in dualboot.

We had three Acer One 110 netbooks with the original 8gb ssd, which was very very slow.
Replaced it with 16GB SuperTalent 1.3", and everything worked smoothly.
The netbooks are much faster (either in XP home, XP Professional or Slackware) and the battery life is also extended.

I ordered this drive and installed it into my A110L to replace the internal 8GB drive. It fit perfectly and I as able to reuse the existing cable that the old drive came with. The twists in the cable and the screw holes aligned, as did the existing bracket. Installation was easy.

This drive works well with Win 7 - I had to reconfigure the BIOS to get it to install, but that was pretty straight forward. It's lots quicker than the original drive. Formatted capacity is 14.3GB.

Good drive, well priced.
