Hybrid Storage Technology
MSI’s unique Hybrid Storage Technology enables the usage of SSD and HDD simultaneously.

MSI uses a SLC based Solid State Drive (SSD) which ensures fast boot up and a very responsive Operating System. This results in very power efficient and shockproof computing.

Ultra Long Battery Life
As a result of MSI’s unique Hybrid Storage Technology, the efficient Intel Menlow Platform, the power saving LED backlight, all powered by a 6 cell battery, the MSI Wind U115 has a battery life of over 12 hours*. The power-efficient design enables ultra long battery life so the user can continue surfing, blogging, listening to music, watching video and communicating with others.

HD Hardware video decoding
The MSI Wind U115 Hybrid makes use of the Intel® US15W chipset, which relieves the High Definition (HD) decode burden from the processor and makes HD hardware video decoding an easy job. Full hardware acceleration of H.264, MPEG2, VC1 and WMV9 is supported, which again helps to reduce the total power consumption, because software decoding is not needed.
