    Hi.

    I've had my NC10 for a while now and am interested in tuning it up. Will be performing the RAM upgrade for starters and would also like to put in a SSD if it wouldn't be too expensive.

    Could somebody recommend a good value SSD which would do the job? Are there any which work particularly well with the NC10?

    Crucial M225 60GB is relatively cheap here in Europe. I don't know about US prices.

    What is your budget and minimum space requirement for a SSD? Cheap and fast generally don't go together, especially w/ SSDs...

    You can read this article on Anandtech if you're interested. At the end they give some recomendations.
