Amazing they could squeeze all that tech into a 1.8" form factor. This should go over well with the ultra-portable crowd... :)

imagine a 3.5" sized drive with 6 of these packed in :p Mmmm raid.

It was actually a consern when the drives were first being built. Some of the companies since then have posted updates. Don't remember which one but one of them claimed over 100 years on "average" hard drive usage. So the bigger/well known companies are claiming improvements and write reliability. Its the smaller new companies that I'm not seeing as many guaranties from . . .
Only writes count as largon said. The data can be read forever (???), its the changing of the "data" on the chips that slowly wears them down.

I just bought a 32gb Mtron 6000 ssd recently and just can't seem to get the random reads beyond 8400 iops. I'm running Ubuntu gutsy on a dell dimension 9200 with an intel core duo 1.86ghz cpu. Mtron claim that this drive can achieve 16000 random iops at 512b random reads. Am I not interpreting the numbers properly or just missing something? Can it be the built sata controller (NVIDIA nForce4) that is slowing things down? I've used iozone and my own custom made program to measure random io speed over say 16gb but can get nowhere near 16000 iops.
