Shian, Asus's corporate vice president and general manager of the notebook unit, “SanDisk’s U100 drive allows our notebook to achieve the thin size, fast performance and long battery life needed to produce an enjoyable user experience.” The U100 has 450 megabyte per second sequential read and up to 340MB/sec sequential write speeds, which is twice the speed of previous P4 SSDs. What contributes to the UX21's slight profile and status as an "Ultrabook" - measuring only 17mm at its thickest point - is the use of second-generation Intel Core processor (up to the i7) and SanDisk's latest mini solid state hard drive that was designed in collaboration with Asus.Īccording to S. ( Here is Engadget's hands-on of the UX21 at Computex.) The U110 SSD supports Power Classes, which provide the ability to limit SSD performance and in turn, limit power consumption.
The UX21channels the Air's aesthetics with an aluminum alloy case and a slight profile but has its own unique look: its "spun" finish is inspired by luxury timepieces, "displaying sharp edges, an oversized keyboard and smartphone-like touchpad." Engadget reports that the demo model weighs 2.4lb, has a 13" display, USB 3.0, no optical drive, no removable battery, a glass touchpad and metal chiclet keys. Asus' proprietary Instant On feature means the UX21 can wake up within an impressive two-seconds, and can hibernate for up to a week. Asus's ultra slim UX21 laptop is not just a Macbook Air clone: it packs some of the latest innovations in laptop computing that were just announced this week at Computex 2011.
