But what does Maughan have to say of the limited write cycles problem that is typical for flash memory? Wikipedia's articles for flash memory and flash keydrives say:

Quote:
Like all flash memory devices, keydrives can sustain only a limited number of write/erase cycles before failure. In normal use, mid-range keydrives currently on the market will support several million cycles, although write operations will gradually slow as the device ages. This should be a consideration when using a keydrive as a hard drive to run software or an operating system.
