Vladimir,
if flash were a viable and reliable replacement for HDDs this would
have
happened for years by now, the costs would have gone down. They are
not, and given their limited number of write cycles they are bound to
stay out of the way of normal disks (which have achieved an amazing
level of performance).
Thanks for posting the details you measured, I'll know now to not buy
a 2G SD-card for my camera (not that I need any more than the 1G I
have now, I have never used > 1/3 its capacity anyway :-) ).
It also explains why the 8GB Photo Hard
Drive I bought for my Nikon is rock-solid
and I've had many intermittent and non-
reproduceable problems with larger FLASH
cards.
