    What is a good small storage SSD with HIgh transfer speeds and low energy consumption for this notebook? Size not an issue i have a larger external harddrive as well looking for fast boot up, and ability to store atleast a few video games. NOt sure how much the average videogame(starcraft 2) takes up however. I think 40gb would be fine

    Depends on your budget more than anything else. The Intel is a very nice and reliable drive, but it's not the fastest. 40GB seems a little tight for OS and games, maybe a 60GB Force would do the trick for you. The Force does well in our real world gaming tests. Results here.
