So...where can we get older long-life-expectancy
flash drives? I
don't care if they're less capacious; I need to sneakernet small groups
of files around occasionally, not swap copies of my entire movie collection.
People look at me like I have two heads for still buying spinning disks, but
under high activity I expect more life from the spinning disk, assuming it
is well-cared-for, than the solid-state flash one (wear leveling).
