Too bad so expensive ($1,337.00), and not sure about reliability compared to HDD

<sarcasm> Who would ever need more than 640K? </sarcasm> Actually I've had pretty bad luck with larger USB sticks. I think 8 - 16 GB is about the reliability limit for now.

Even flash drives wear out. They are only good for a certain number of writes. That's going to be a high number, but if you try to use it as a system drive or something that does a lot of writes it will die on you in time.

Nice! I have a 64GB SSD that I use to hold a VM of my development environment, otherwise, I just use "redundancy" between a couple computers as a backup for A/V stuff and a remote SVN server for everything else. Marc

I'm sufficiently careful with data that I have automated backup scripts for critical USB sticks.

I carry both (encrypted and backed up of course) as a matter of routine.
