I remember people getting big increases with the driver released last august. A Guy
My current WEI is 5.9.

Anyone know how to have more on my current computer ? Yesterday, I did Windows Update, full (with some drivers) and today, I run WEI test and WEI is same
5.9 is the most you'll get with a spinner HDD. You'd need a SSD to get past that. Don't worry, if the PC is doing what you need it to do, WEI is only a number

I may have the highest scoring 5,400 RPM drive out there....certainly the highest scoring one I have seen, anyways. Not that I haven't wondered what an SSD might do for this lightly powered unit, of course.....
Darn tootin' good 5400RPM scores there!
Randy a SSD would be so fast you couldn't see the machine, it'd be faster than light.
even geting 7200RPMers would make a very noticeable difference.
Newegg has a 64GB Samsung for $80 till 11:59PM 4/18/12. Need a promo code to get it.
Nah.. I'm fine. With 6 GB of RAM I don't fill the pinch that often. And I like the wide open spaces of the classic HDD.
I have thought about it, but I would want more than 64GB if I was to put one in this netbook....and then if I was to get one, I'd probably be more conscious of the limitations of the CPU and RAM. A vicious cycle, these upgrades can be....lol
For what I paid for this netbook last year, I can get a more powerful 15.6" laptop now....only drawback would be the battery life drop-off. But I can't just go buy another one without selling this one....so I'll probably hang onto this one for another year. It still does what I need it to do just fine.
