Old video. But still, some models (1015PEB) must be 90% disassembled to replace storage drive. RAM is still on bottom, but only 1 slot (2GB DDR2 max). At least storage drive supports standard 2.5" wide SSDs.
No anti static strap and when handling the memory modules he has his fingers and thumbs all over them ! Use anti static precautions and handle the memory by holding the edges of the circuit board and try not to touch the chips or contacts.
Can't speak for every EEE PC but the 901 uses DDR2 667 or 800 RAM. 2GB is the effective limit largely because it lacks the power to use applications needing more than that amount of RAM. Any SSD that is compatible can be used, which is best found by googling the model for forum reviews. There's no size limit on SSDS, only your wallet :p
I did check their site and nada on how to gain more useability. I have had several netbooks and only running 1GB n got better performance than what I'm seeing. However, some of my issues did indeed have to do with my internet connectivity. @ the time of my last post Sprint was upgrading their network to 4G. My Acer netbooks were able to adequately run a graphic intensive video editing programs good enuf when I didn't or couldn't use my desktop. Just seems like a gip. Thanx 4 responding tho.
Thx for the quick answer. The problem is...that it doesn't has a memory slot, it's attached to the motherboard. So what you presented to me needs a memory slot. I have to ask again, in this case is it possible the upgrade?
I recently upgraded my Asus EeePC dimm memory to 4 GB but only 2 GB appear as useable, any suggestions for how to gain more useable memory. The performance is unimpressive and really haven't experience any significant gain in speed. Very disappointing. I've installed it correctly as it 4 GB DOES properly shows up in the BIOS and in the system properties when you boot into Windows. However, videos buffering still crawls. My Acer performed better with only 1GB of RAM. Please advise.
So there is possible to instal more than 2gb ram? I red somewhere, that it suports just 2... and for replacing 1 with 2gb ram, you should just go to bios and save the change, nothing else.... I got this computer pritty cheap, so, what would you recomend me to make the specification the best as possible? regards
does it matter, if you know, in which model of eeepc you're upgrading the ram? It's my only comp & I'm trying to see if changing out the present ram with new ram will fix a prob of laggy video/rendering. I can't afford to be as thorough as you've been.
HI, I have eee pc 701 4g which motherboard does not have socket for an SSD installation but has a place to solder-in such socket. Can you tell what socket should i buy and type of SSD I can install?
Hi, I have a reasonably new desktop and I want to clone this ssd before I format it and try a different os by putting it into my desktop, however is this going to work as I'm sure my computer only accommodates SATA hdds????
Hi Vina, we will need make and model of your computer to assist you. Alternatively, you can visit our website and check for compatible upgrade using upgrade my computer option.

@@crucial Given that the video is about a EEE PC 901 netbook i assume that the upgrades required are for that machine. The SSD as far as i know is mini PCIE (MPCIE) but the machine does not support mSATA so it's hard to find compatible SSD's. It has a boot SSD (50mm) and a storage SSD (70mm). Max RAM Memory is 2GB. I also want to upgrade one of these so if you have any compatible SSD drives i would be interested.
This is all well and good, but you fail to mention one very important thing: After upgrading RAM on an eeePC you have to go into BIOS and disable/enable a few things to get the PC to recognize the new RAM. That would have been super helpful to know and would have saved me from trying EVERY brand of RAM on the market...
Well, I have an Asus EEC PC Netbook and bought the 2gb (I have 1 gb) and followed instructions. When I charged the netbook, it wouldn't start! Can't that machine take 2gb? I don't understand why it won't boot up....switched back to 1 gb and it starts up.
Hello!Can you tell me,please,what kind of ssd type it is inside?I want to upgrade my eee pc 901 and dont know what type off ssd i must buy. Does it worth to upgrade him?Thank you!
haha danielpila, that is called and m-sata ssd drive, i am crazy to have one. not too many people know about it. my favorite configuration is an netbook with a m-sata port and a regular sata port - msata for the boot drive (about 30-60gb) and 500gb in the sata port. but i did not find any netbook where that is possible maybe somebody here has a hint for my, would be grateful! regards to all people who are keen on SCREWING ;D
My laptop's processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2250 1.73GHz with 512MB RAM. Will there be an increase in performance if I add 2GB RAM to it?? My laptop is very slow. I really need help.
I read a comment on another vid that all it takes (a bit scary to do but it works 'cause I did it like a yr ago) is an upgrade of the BIOS, found at asus.com. I looked & found no setting for RAM in my 901. Just a suggestion if anyone else has a prob with their ram upgrade/replacement.
Don't count on it. Netbooks have integrated graphics cards and no PCI or PCI-E card slots. This means you can't upgrade the already suuuuuuper low end graphics that pretty much all netbooks come with. If a netbook does have the CPU and GPU needed to do video editing, HD playback or gaming then it'll cost about as much as a laptop that will have better components and a lot more upgrades available. Look around newegg and other such sites for a $400-500 laptop. It'll do what you want and more.
hi guys i need some help for my Asus Eee pc series model 701. when do i start sorry for my enlish speaking ^^. i reformat my notebook coz its has a deepfreeze that cant open its console after i reformat it it went out that my hard disk 4gb went down or meaning to say its has no free space on it i was so confused why its happens after i install a windows xp pro. pls help
i built my computer using a magnetized screwdriver, they become magnetized over time. When you repair things for people your not going to buy a fresh screw driver just because of a weak magnetic force enough to hold a screw.
Thank you for this useful tutorial. It retains its value even now, 14 years later.
Thanks for making a nice, simple and informative video!

A bit late here but MB can only accepts DDR2 ram ?
Thanks for this video; precise and to the point.
Now I'm trying to install Win7 on my new Runcore 64Gb
Simple and concise. Excellent tutorial.
No anti static strap and when handling the memory modules he has his fingers and thumbs all over them !
Use anti static precautions and handle the memory by holding the edges of the circuit board and try not to touch the chips or contacts.
Thank you SOOOO MUCH. Hopefully I may be able to resurrect two aged (but MINT) eee PCs!
@vmmc2 no, they use ssd to conserve room. there won't be space in your netbook for a full laptop harddrive

It's a bit late but it's called as msata ssd
@@mrarcticaaa1101 I think it's an mPCIE not an mSATA. Same plug, different technology. From what i have read, the mSATA won't work.
