1. Comment - Samsung Builds Flash Based Disk Drive

   To clarify any confusion caused by all the MBTF stats quoted here.
   
   The limited numbers of write cycles of Flash memory has absolutely nothing to do with MBTF.
   
   You can reach the limit of write cycles in one day if you write to the flash often enough, or you can reach it in 10 years if you write infrequently.

   The gentleman with the first post is correct, flash has a limited number of read/write cycles.
   
   The number used to be about 1000 cycles, it may have gone up since, but the limitation is still there.
