Dell Inspiron Mini 9 Upgrade Flash Hard Drive

I've posted a quick video on how to upgrade your Flash Hard Drive from the inconveniently small size to something more usable. In this case, I upgraded my 4 GB hard drive to a 32 GB.

I puchased the hard drive from MyDigitalDiscount.com. Here's a link to the item:

There is also a 64 GB version but it was about double the price and since I mostly just use this for note taking and web surfing, 32 GB seemed good enough for now.

In my experience, this drive has similar performance to the Dell installed drive. I do use a FAT 32 partition instead of NTFS which seemed to increase my overall performance on this disk.

The link to the flash drive at mydigitaldiscount.com is no longer valid. Is there another recommended product?
