Observations of Soft X-ray Transients (SXTs) with Chandra and XMM-Newton turned out to have a profound impact on the study of cooling neutron stars. Model fits especially to those cases where the accretion history is well known, such as quasi-persistent sources (sources that have accreted matter at a high rate for 10 years) provide good test grounds for theoretical models. I will discuss the neutron star SXT with the lowest quiescent luminosity, 1H 1905+000, and focus on the implications of our deep 300 ksec Chandra observation obtained in 2006. In particular I will discuss the constraints derived from neutron star cooling theory on the neutron star EoS and the relation between the quiescent luminosity of neutron stars with respect to that of quiescent black hole systems.
