160Gb Hard Drive Netbooks

There are two types of netbook hard drives. Solid state hard drives are smaller, usually under 16Gb in size. They are fast and boot up very quickly. Solid state hard drives don't have any moving parts - so are shock proof. Optical hard drives are larger - anything up to 250Gb - and cheaper. They do have moving parts, and can be affected by movement, but you'd have to really bang it around to have much of an effect.
