Re: @Trevor_Pott Change in Flash technology to eliminate finite write lifetime?
"No, Archaon, in your non-objective, blinkered position on things you've missed the whole thrust of my argument: namely that there is no value - except in some very niche situations, including outright poverty - in recovering 10 year old drives from systems and reusing them, even if their lifespan was infinite."
What you don't seem to "grok" from your own blinkered position is that I pretty much agreed with you. Just making the point that there's alternatives. As I said, shades of grey. Not just Mr Pott's opinion and wrong.
