On the other hand, I read many reports of machines using flash drives, particularly for things like set-top boxes and audio devices (often based on VIA EPIA motherboards), where I presume there are many writes. I've never seen any kind of warning with these, or statement about limited life. There really seem very mixed messages on this. [I'm interested in a fanless server using a flash drive - I find the idea that there would be no moving parts attractive.] -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
