With the success of the first Wind U100, MSI has, thankfully, thought of revising the U100 model at where it matters most? The hard drive. And the new version of the MSI wind combines the best of the Solid State Drives (SSD) with Hard Disk Drives (HDD).

The Wind U100 is actually MSI's sophomore offering of the hybrid netbook variety. The first MSI hybrid to be released was the U115.

What is a hybrid netbook? A hybrid netbook actually features a standard HDD but with an SSD installed in it. With a hybrid netbook, a user can choose to run the operating system from the SSD while using the HDD exclusively for storage. This type of storage has two distinct advantages: (a) it maximizes performance, and (b) minimizes power drain.

SSD Vs HDD

Hard disk drives were first used, and are still being used, in desktop computers and regular sized laptops. These storage devices have a large storage capacity, with some hard disks storing up to 200GB of data, although maximum netbook capacity has been steady at 160GB so far.

Hard disk drives have several moveable parts for storing data, including the driver motor, magnetic platters, and drive heads. Because of this, the information on solid state drives becomes unreadable after an impact. A hard disk drive comes in different sizes: 1.8", 2.5" or 3.5" and uses either an ATA or SATA drive interface in order to be useful.

On the other hand, an SSD uses semiconductor flash memory chips to store data. With less moveable parts, SSD netbooks, can boot data up to 20% faster and are generally more reliable than netbooks using traditional hard drives.

The first netbooks to be sold in the market used SSD because they draw less power. Netbooks with SSD have longer battery life and they also tend to be shock-proof. Since a solid state drive stores all its data in memory chips, there are fewer moving parts to be damaged in any sort of impact. But SSD netbooks have a much lower storage capacity and can only hold up to 64GB of data.

The Hybrid U100

Although MSI has not specified for how long the hybrid Wind is going to last for on battery mode, it is expected to last longer than either SSD netbook or HDD netbooks.

The company has not specified the expected battery life under real world conditions, but this 'eco on' mode will look attractive given the U115's modest 3-cell battery. The hybrid Wind U100 pretty much the same version of the old Wind with its 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 chip running Windows XP, an LED-based 10 inch screen, 1GB RAM, and 802.11n WiFi. The hard drive comes in two options, an 8Gb SSD with a 120GB 2.5 inch HDD, or a 16GB SSD and a 160GB HDD.

Residential Power Steam Humidifier Skr

Comfortable indoor relative humidity (percentage of moisture in the air) level is 35%. Many homes can have a relative humidity level as low as 7% in the winter.

Pneumococcus, staphylococcus, and streptococcus bacteria die up to 20 times faster at relative humidity between 45% and 55%, than above 70% or below 20%.

One of the most common health issues that plague our society is dehydration.
Most of the tissue in the body is composed of water. If it loses the water,
the tissue dries up, its elasticity goes, and with it function declines.
Besides dry skin, the symptoms of dehydration include chronic joint and muscle pain, raspy throat, sore eyes, and difficulty concentrating.
Humidification can protect your investments.

Controlling the amount of moisture in the air is necessary for your family's
health. Dry air in your home can make your throat feel dry, and cause or
aggravate respiratory ailments. During extremely cold weather, your home loses
 humidity to the outdoors and may drop to as low as 5% relative humidity.
Cold air inside a home heated to 73 degrees can have a relative humidity
approaching 6%. By comparison, typical humidity in the Sahara Desert is about
25%. Generally, one does not want to have a home humidity any lower than 30%.
Optimal comfort is considered to be achieved at 40-55% humidity. Health
Institutions recommend that your home's relative humidity should be kept
between 30% and 55% during the winter. Lower levels aggravate skin allergies
and respiratory infections, and higher levels increase the spread mold,
bacteria and viruses. Dust mites spread when the humidity is above 50%.

Inadequate humidification during cold weather is one of the major causes of respiratory infections. The heating season causes many people to experience repeated attacks of winter colds. Winter is blamed for these problems, but the actual cause is dryness, which effects the membranes of the nose, throat and bronchial tubes. Relative humidity also has a significant effect on controlling the occurrence of airborne infections.

Whenever there is power drain, my system hibernates automatically. Is it equivalent to improper Shutdown?

No. It's quite safe; it'll save your current work to harddisk so that you can resume from where you left, and shuts down pc properly, just like normal shutdown. But the difference is that it won't load all services and program that are loaded when we boot computer, just use them as they were loaded when sysem was started first.

I hope this helps.
