I would prob recommend the HDD since its upgradeable with packages and all. most of the runtime I believe is kept on a RAM style partition unless yer saving logs. but if you want silent, the flash based isnt a bad way to go either.

I have a choice to either put a Disk on Flash - 2GB OR Put a very old HDD with 3.2 GB Should I use the embedded one: pfSense-1.2-BETA-2-Embedded-128-MB.img.gz Or should I use the regular install. I am inclined for the flash because it will be silent. I am going to do site to site VPN in addition to built in PPTP server. Not planning for SQUID or any fancy packages. Thanks very much for your help and guidance
