Testing RunCore SSD for Dell Mini 9

[hauabdu]

thanks for this tutorial!

[needhelp1990]

does the dell mini 9 use sata or pata pci?

[theimporter]

Will any 64GB SSD PCI-E drives work on the Dell Mini9 ?

[Nindiscods]

No you will need a pci ssd

[theimporter]

Hmm.... you might want to read my question just one more time.

[Nindiscods]

You said PCI-E, there is a difference

[theimporter]

PCI-E means PCI Express, which is what the guy in the video says -_-

[seungheicho]

Can I do the cloning process from another computer? I want to copy installed programs from a samsung computer what I usually use.

[joshstube]

I cannot find anything more on your SSD experiment with the old Dell 50mm on the Eee 901?

Can you post a link here?

Thank You again

[joshstube]

Thank You for the tutorial.

Do you have any reviews about the easiest way to remove "crap ware" from Dell (& other devices) ?

[NutsandGuts]

it has all the crapware!

[Kyodaikuma]

Quite a fast SSD but I've heard some comments about the heat this ssd produces, looks like it's quite hot so my question is will this overheating reduce the life time of the ssd?

[kristenheartnick]

I have a larger acer, but i'd like to get a mini just for typing things and the internet, and use my larger one for games and movies...i kno...i make no sence...Thats what michigan does to you

[lekotar]

Why not just buy a Dell Mini with 160 GB HDD?! It's just 20 € more than the SSD.

[Petchhyy]

Because SSD's are infinitely faster than HDD's, if you don't need capacity your operating system will run way faster.

[DjGisME]

SSD is silent and lifetime 1.6m hours - virtually unbreakable

[yfzi]

ssd is faster and has no moving parts

[Curufin2]

Finnish accents are awesome :D

[iinfiniteammo]

Yeah, at first I thought we were hearing some robotic Stephen Hawking computerized voice.

[shuntfield]

I want to install a 32Gb in my mini-9 - But cannot get them anywhere! - even worse in the UK - anyone got stock? :)

[shuntfield]

Got one now - Yes much faster!

[RACHELbeChiLL]

the mini proably wouldn't be able to play games. NO CD/DVD driveeeee

you'd need to buy an external one for around 50.00

[skilo837]

yea but why would you buy a mini (netbook) to play games on????

the screen is only 8.9" that would suck for gaming dude lol

minis are for mobility and designed to use less power .

so for gaming you need a big power hogging desktop with a good graphix card and at least a pentium 4 for the newer games.

[fr0z3nmechanix]

I have to disagree... true... they aren't built stock for power.... but... I'm the kind of person that wants more power packed in less volume... I like small devices that do EXACTLY what i want... these mods help that along. Although I don't understand why dell packs these things w/ so much crapware... they're slow enough stock as is.. it's pretty sad... and when i was looking at the dell 10 at bestbuy... the crapware kinda turned me off to it.

[tommytwin24]

is it really that easy? even with an OS? Is this the new easiest way to hackintosh a netbook?

[DvdOwens]

i havent seen any1 making any videos about dell mini 9 running vista or playing a game :(, and i wanted to buy 1

[vbrtrmn]

If you're gaming, the mini9 probably isn't right for you.

[DvdOwens]

i seen a cuple videos now of then playing games

[8394147]

I saw one of someone playing WoW. But I'm not sure why you'd do that. It probably required some hardware upgrades.

I just ordered one. I'll probably up the RAM myself for $20 and if the price of SSDs comes down, I'll eventually increase the capacity. That or I'll get a large SD card or something. Mine is only 512MB RAM and 8GB SSD. But I can't wait for it to arrive! They look really cute.

[ug0trickr011ed]

fuckin idot who would buy a dell mini to play games for spwnding 299$ on a fuckin laptop to play game why dont u buy like a psp fot 170$

[DvdOwens]

becuase, im getting rid of my old laptop,

and they run pretty nice.

[sammy757219]

i tried the crystaldisk utility that you showed on your site, and surprisingly my read speeds were just slightly better on average by 1.5 MB/sec.

But the write speeds were terrible, less than 6MB/sec at best, it seems that's where the bottleneck lies

[ricardorn06]

has anyone tried it? is it really that easy?

[serginecologo]

full compatibility with macOS??

[changoTCL]

What software did you clone the drive with?

[mwfromva]

Acronis Trueimage

Advertising contest:

I want to buy a Dell Mini 9.

SSD runcore to increase storage capacity.

Identity: gittitube

[jkkmobile]

to enter to the contest go to jkkmobile . com

[mspitz]

Thank you. Is this because of the non-standard signaling that Dell and Asus use on the PCIe slot?

[jkkmobile]

yep, actually it is standard ide pcie but not normal pci and usb...

[mspitz]

Will these RunCore modules work in any notebook with a free mini PCIe slot? Is the only difference between the DELL and ASUS cards the maximum capacity and the micro USB port?

[jkkmobile]

Sorry, but these ssds work only on Dell Mini 9 and Asus Eee PCs

[JrockerForLife]

He so almost touched the naked board and then thought well its not in a case perhaps I shouldn't touch anything but the usb cord if your going to use this outside the pc put it in something one grab of that with your hand while its powered up will fry it

[johnnytturbo]

Really enjoying your reviews! Wish you'd put out more video.

[BG7FL]

could you tell me the software name?

[unaclocker]

Since you're the only one that has actually gotten one (looks like more than one actually) of these from MyDigitalDiscount, how about installing OS X onto the machine and see if the drive wakes from sleep properly. There are a whole bunch of people that would like to know the answer to that.

The STEC drive does not. The generic MLC SSD that MDD used to sell does.

[johnnytturbo]

Installing OSX on anything but a mac is not exactly legal...I doubt JKK would go there

[unaclocker]

It's not exactly illegal either. It's just an EULA that says you can't do it. EULA's have been proven time and time again in court to be unenforceable. Once you've bought the copy of OSX, it's yours to do with as you please.

[segagman]

i allso have a question

i have a eeepc 900 16gb 1gb ram that came with xandros.

i put xp nlited down to just under 300mb on it well the battery life is with xp is drastically smaller than with xandros and for the life of me i can't figure out why.

If you have any input on this i would be very great full.

[cainemansion125]

i want to ask which mini notebook do you like the best from all mini notebooks you have reviewed? If money is not a problem

[johnnytturbo]

He would probably say the Fujitsu U2010/U820 based on his reactions to it with XP and everything working.
