What do you guys think of the "archive-ness"
of current solid state
devices? M.2, NVMe, SSD, or even USB thumb sticks? A friend proposed
that when one of those starts to go bad, any kind of partial data recovery
becomes difficult - but any more difficult than the old traditional
magnetic media?
I thought Flash could only hold the data in them X amount of years until
the junctions discharge or whatever? It's less permanent than decent
quality optical or pro magnetic media?
You have to plug them in every so often to refresh I believe.
