I'm looking at upgrading my netbook to windows 7, but it only has a 4gb Drive (Asus eee 900a - 1.3(?)ghz Atom, 2gb Ram, 9" display, no touch panel yet) With the higher cost of the PCI-E drives, I'm looking instead of doing the camera-port-to-internal-USB-port mod and hooking up a thumb drive instead (~$40 for 32gb USB vs $40-$60 for 16gb PCI-E)

Would this work or would the drive be far too slow to boot off of?
