i officially hate . . . HATE . . . Sandisk flash drives . . . IMO they are absolutely worth pieces of crap for large amounts of storage . . . - i'm not dead yet ! Nov 9, 13:05 7
- Flash drives are designed for transferring files, not storing them. - Dignan Nov 9, 13:13 4
  - it has to store the files while in transit, what difference does it make if its stored long enough to sneaker/net them down the hall or snailmailed - zeitgeist Nov 9, 13:21 2
    - If you're transferring, that likely means you have an original copy of the data. If the drive corrupts, not a big deal. - Dignan Nov 9, 13:35 1
      - flash drives are also totally not built anywhere near as robustly. they have less write endurance....nm - x Nov 9, 13:55
  - Yeah, I wouldn't use them long term for anything. Portable HDs are dirtcheap, invest a terabyte drive. -- nm - Reagen Nov 9, 13:17
- i've probably asked this before, but is there *anything*, *any kind of programming* that can be used to recover lost files on a flash drive? -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Nov 9, 13:08 1
