Very true but keep in mind that if long term is what we try to look at
(or heavy usage) that flash tech has another big problem: a limited
read/write cycles life.
In theory, a hard drive has none. Of course hey are mechanical parts
but one know BOTH techs have their problems.

That being said I agree that flash is probably beter in majority of cases.
