Re: Flash based IDE drives...

I don't think a CF flash card is as fast as a SSD would be, since the  
SSD is in effect a 'raid' of smaller flash memory, and should be  
quite a bit faster, shouldn't it?

But true, the price is currently prohibitive. But 10 years ago I paid  
$1400 for my first 4 gig drive, and thought it was a bargain. So it  
won't take long, a couple of years and that drive will be quite  
affordable.
