Well rigth now the hard disk are in danger of extintion with new chips cappable to archive 400gb per square inch





Maybe they appear the next year
Reply:Flash memory is cool, but its not going to amount to a whole lot unless they can get the access speed up. I don't know what others think, but personally, I think they are too frickin slow to make me want to dump harddrive technology that is good for 30-70mbs a second. Lots of USB based flash disks are limited to 12mb sec max, and I doubt you ever really see that.
Reply:They will keep getting better and better with more and more storage space. It will be the same as everything else when it comes to electronics; buy the best one available today, in 2 weeks, someone will come out with something better.





There is an issue, however, with digital camera manufacturers not being able to keep up; you can get 4GB memory cards now, but MOST digital cameras can't even handle anything above 2GB.





Hope this helps :)
