This is a real reply from asus.

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Service.

For your first question, the SSD used on EeePC could read/writte 100,000 times.

For the second one, we are sorry to tell you that we do not have the model that you described at the moment. And we could not fix the 2nd mini PCI. Please kindly understand this. Thanks.

I would like to know, what is the life span of the flash memory on the eee pc.

I understand it can you can only make a number of read and writes to the memory. And i would like to

know how many.

And please do not tell me that it will last the life-time of the laptop as i have a ten year old laptop that

is still going strong on its first hard drive. And I know that the eee pc i own you cannot replace the

flash hd based device.

Also if i return this laptop to asus would they be willing to fix the second mini pci express connector

back on to the motherboard, as mine has not had it fitted. if not what model numbers still have the

second mini pci express slot please. or send me one and i will pay someone to fit it. as it looks simple

to do if you know what you are doing.
