This is an OK SSD. But I would really recommend against 32GBs. And I don't know how you can fit Windows into 8GB.

What part of 32GB being too small did you miss? It's not just about the storage; the OS needs room to operate in. I don't know where you got the idea that Windows uses only 8GB.

On top[ of that, the SSD should always have appr. 20% unused space for Garbage Collection to work properly.

Respectfully I would do the larger and fastest supported ram the netbook will allow first. The SSD will boot. open programs and close faster but I would see if your sister notices enough speed improvement with just the ram. Use this ram/memory adviser to see what your sisters netbook will upgrade to:
DDR3, DDR2 and DDR RAM memory upgrades from Crucial.com |

Well that doubles the ram and that sounds like the limit. For me the SSD without opening heavy applications only cuts down on power, noise and heat once the net is open, up and running. Stick with the ram and then push for a upgrade later to a i5 ultrabook on sale.

They were refurbished but OCZ is a serious company and they are probably better than new. You just have to shop around. But if you think your sis can live with 32GB, that's OK too. My wife lives with little disk space too. But she has all her files on 32GB USB sticks. |
