Hi-speed USB2 Flash Drive Round-Up

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-hid-it-in-my-space-cavity dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Ars Technica has a USB 2.0 Flash drive review featuring 8 drives from different manufacturers. What's so interesting about the review is that not all Flash drives are created equal. Some have very unique features while some are clearly better than others. They also took a detailed look inside one of the drives as well as put two drives in a RAID-0 array (a la Mac OS X). Now that's cool!"

    It's geeky to want to have redundancy and retain data?

    Putting all of your eggs in one basket (so to speak) is rarely, if ever, a Good Thing.

    Yes, and if you look at my own reply to my post, you will see I corrected myself. I should have read more closely...I very well know the different raid architectures as I handle a large-ish server room with plenty of horsepower at work.
