Hi,
I just got a new netbook, an em350 n450 1.66ghz. It came with a 160gb 5200rpm hard drive and i was thinking of swapping that out and putting in either a 62gb vertex 2 or a 32gb onyx (both ocz). My question is will there be much difference in speed considering the slow processor. the onyx is $80 and the vertex is $160 (Aus $). I am not that concerned about the amount of storage as i will mainly be using it for uni and not filling it up with music and vid's etc.... Mainly i am looking for faster boot up times and better battery consumption.
I have a vertex 2 in my desktop at home and its AMAZING. but will a netbook perform any better with the slower read and write times between these models?
