  1. Comment - Samsung Builds Flash Based Disk Drive

    Hey, I was reading these comments, and started thinking. Couldn't the effects of wear and tear be reduced by implementing some sort of data redundancy or error correction? CD's do it, DVD's do it better, and similar techniques are being used in RAID today. Sure, some cells would lose their data, but we'd be able to recover that data, possibly transparently to the user. The downside is that you get a slight reduction in storage space. What do you guys think?
