SAMSUNG MCAQE16G8APR-0XA00 1.8" 16GB PATA Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) - OEM

The computer is faster, quieter, and I assume cooler too with less power consumption. Going in and out of standby mode and booting is much faster now. This is way better than a cheaper "apacer" SSD I had already gotten. Get on the SSD bandwagon before...
