ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PE-PU17-BU 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - Up to 14 Hours of Battery Life
ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005PE-PU17-BU 10.1-Inch Blue Netbook - Up to 14 Hours of Battery Life Review
I recently got my ASUS Eee PC 1005PE and am happy with it. I planned to upgrade to 2GB and ordered the Crucial CT25664AC800 as was recommended in some reviews. However, some people have had trouble with this.
Crucial now has a recommendation for the ASUS 1005PE: the 2GB CT1166735, which appears to have the same specifications as the CT25664AC800. The Crucial site doesn’t appear to be working quite right because it says there are four possible products which can be used, but only shows the one. Further, the Crucial program which scans your computer and makes upgrade recommendations didn’t run on the ASUS — a Win 7 issue?
Searching the Crucial site for CT25664AC800 gives the surprising result that there are FIVE versions of this ram module by different manufacturers - two from Intel, two from Diamond Flower, and one from MSI. It’s possible to order a particular kind of CT25664AC800 from Crucial or just place a generic order. Perhaps the inconsistent results people have with the CT25664AC800 are due to different implementations of it.
I plan to return the unopened CT25664AC800 that I received from Amazon as it does not appear to be the recommended Crucial memory, although the specifications are identical to the Crucial CT1166735. The CT1166735 is apparently only manufactured by one supplier and the ASUS 1005PE is mentioned explicitly in its description.
- 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N450 Processor
- 1GB DDR2 RAM, 1 SODIMM Slot, 2GB Max
- 250GB SATA Hard Drive (5400RPM) + 500GB Free Web Storage; Chiclet Keyboard; 0.3MP Webcam

- Windows 7 Starter Operating System; High Capacity 6 Cell Battery for up to 14 Hours of Battery Life

The 92%-scaled ergonomic keyboard and Multi-Touch touchpad make it a breeze to type and navigate through content. The 1005PE-P’s 250GB hard drive and 500GB of free webstorage provide a wealth of storage and backup capabilities. The 1005PE also features a chiclet keyboard for added style and comfort.
