Re: Hard Drive shock protection
I realize that if your looking for vibration resistant media, flash would be your best bet. However, I'm a little weary about using flash as the primary storage on a computer. My concern is wearing out the cells. Flash can only go through a finite number of read/write cycles. For something like a camera, it's fine because you'll usually fill up the card before erasing it. A computer however, will be constantly changing data. A file that's rewritten very often (maybe a log), it would wear out the flash very quickly.
