Samsung expects 20% desktop storage NAND flash based drives by 2008

depends on the price....what if it falls? or the connection gets messed up? cause my dad has a 2gb flash drive he bought like 6 months ago and u have to hold the drive at a certain angle cause something internally got loose....it'll take a pretty loooooooooooooong time to backup 1gb file like that, let alone 32gb

the jump drive and the nand flash drives will be different. you cant compare the 2 items like that through flaws. they're flash based. otherwise, they're not the same thing.
 
flash drives are designed for portability and to be extremely compact. with these NAND flash drives they don't have the same limitations. i suspect whatever they decide to do it will be incredibly stable, much more stable than current HD's with moving heads and platters. I'm hyped and excited, HD's have long since been the bottleneck of computers. we will finally have uses for all that bandwith SATA2 provides.

Nothing in this world is indestructible. But something with no moving parts is much less likely to fail than something that does.
