Re: [Trisquel-users] What brand / size of flash drive would you recommend ?

[onpon4]

Flash storage usually comes with some embedded firmware that controls where  
everything is written to and tries to avoid writing to the same places over  
and over again. Eventually it's not going to succeed, and how quickly that  
happens depends on how much empty space the flash storage has and what wear  
leveling technique is used. But decent flash storage should be able to last a  
couple years, at least, with the frequency of writing you might expect from  
GNU/Linux.
