Samsung Develops Flash-Based 'Disk' for PCs
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "HARDWARE" @ 07:00 PM
I thought flash memory chips also had a limited number of times it could be rewritten. Granted, I believe it is a pretty high number so it is doubtful you would ever hit it with the manner we currently use flash memory. But wouldn't using them as a true hard disk involve a much higher number of rewrites and possibly a much shorter live? If that has been overcome then this could be great. I don't use that much space on my laptops drive (currently using 6 GB of a 60 GB drive), so this could be ideal for users like me.
