MSI’s Wind netbook series has gotten plenty of coverage here in the last four days, with the announcement of the U120, an impressive liquid nitogren-assisted overclocking of the U100, and a slightly mysterious U120 unboxing video.
So, we have the MSI Wind U100 already out there and very popular, and now the Wind U120 announced, but what about the ones in between? Well, Lilputing via Netbook3G has posted some very interesting information on them.
Both the U110 and U115 netbooks from MSI are on the way, but its the U115 that is of most interest. It will sport something called a “hybrid storage system” that will be compromised of both a hard drive and SSD. The operating system will be installed on the SSD, and the idea behind this is that is leaves lots of free space on the hard drive for other stuff. Another note about the U110 is that it will use Intel’s Atom Z530 processor and not the Z270 that is more common, such as in the U100. The Z270 extends battery life by using less power. The U115 will offer three SSD/HDD combo options: 8GB SSD/80GB HDD, a 16GB SSD/120GB HDD, and 32GB SSD/160GB HDD.
