The grandmother of an ordinary administrator lived with a gray goat, an old netbook.
And although there was an SSD in that netbook, it was only 4 gig, which is certainly enough for the system, but for everything else it was necessary to use an external screw and SDHC cards, the external screw was tired and there was not enough space on the cards, but a way out was found. For the rest, welcome to cat. ( traffic ) The netbook is quite ordinary ASUS EEE PC 701, purchased as soon as it appeared in Russia and has survived a lot since then. Outwardly, nothing special, the classic black matte case and matte screen, very pleasantly assembled no backlashes and gloss. Slightly stitched bios.
Getting into the hands of this device served as the starting point of the mod: an external 1.8 "USB hard drive.

Naturally, the device was immediately prepared. A plastic was found under the protective rubber case and under it another rubber container is already directly for the hard drive. Despite the rather impressive size of the box, the hard drive itself was very small (70x50x5). I quickly sorted the netbook. I put the hard drive in place and cut off the interfering plastic, you can also see the abnormal Bluetoeth module hanging on wires.
The USB - IDE adapter was removed from the standard box and the proper miniUSB connector was sealed off from it (there is still the option to get the hard drive directly to the IDE interface of the netbook, but it is complicated by the need to solder 44+ wires in a very small space, I decided that I had enough speed ) The Bluetoeth module had to be unsoldered, there were only two internal USB ports. The USB-IDE adapter is soldered in its place. We insert the ZIF cable and isolate everything carefully. We isolate the hard drive case no less carefully. We install the motherboard in a regular place (you can see the wiring from another mod, more on that later). We connect the hard drive and lay the cables. We return to the place the old USB receiver mode from the radio mouse.
Test run of the system, powerful cooling from coins is used. The flight is normal, you can collect. I finally collect it. The only difference is the memory compartment lid bending by a millimeter. Done! The result is pleasing to the eye :)
