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!"

  1. RAID Array? Afraid not... by loose+electron · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Last time I checked, RAID still stood for

    "Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks"

    So where is the spinning magnetic media?

    This seems to show some of the microsoft influence, where every storage medium plugged into the PC is defined as a disk drive.
