    I am not sure what you mean by slim?
    I am guessing you mean its the smaller version for ultraportables.
    a 64gb ssd would be a good option, but they are really expensive.
    I would send a PM to LES, he is the SSD guru, he knows all about SSD's cause he works in the business. I am sure he could point out where you can find one or if its a good idea or not.

    I think the U2E uses a 1.8" hard drive which is probably what they mean. Did you look on eBay? That's where I got mine.

    I have the same question. Is it possible to find a 64GB SSD for the U2E?

    A 64GB SSD slim is really expensive, but the fact that it doesn't take up much space is good..
