Sansdisc rolls out flash.....
I'm so glad to finally see that flash drive hdd's are making their way into the 'public' sector! When I was in the military in the early '90's I was issued a 100 gig flasdrive laptop. One word for it: INCREDIBLE! Fast, no heat, took abuse in the field, etc.
Kinda reminds me of just how far ahead Sony was in the early '90's when they marketed the Mini-disc player/recorder. I was one of the 1st to jump on this technology...Fast, small disc but same data-size capabilities as a 'full-size' CD, durable (plastic-encased...no chance of fingerprints, etc), ereasable discs, auto-eject, etc....and I cannot count the 'cycles' that I've put mine thru, but I know it's well over 2,000 re-writes and still performs flawlessly! And, yes, I've got 3 'full-size' player/recorders that don't compare to the sound quality of my mini-disc player/recorder! I guess it will all depend on 'popularity' as far as the marketing strategy to get the price down regarding flash hdd's for the general public. The DEPENDABILITY is already there. I'd say 9+years for a flashdrive laptop is DEFINATELY Dependable!!
