New Flash drive from Sandisk

• SanDisk introduced 32 GB flash drive for note book.
• This drive going to be approx. 600$.
• Flash is a solid-state technology, meaning it has no moving parts unlike "normal" hard drives that store data on spinning plates and use an arm-mounted head for reading and writing.
• No moving parts means the drive is faster and won't break down as frequently. In fact, SanDisk claims an average of two million hours of use before a failure, and says its new drive can boot Windows Vista in a mere 35 seconds.
• Flash drives also use less power than standard hard drives, which can give notebooks an edge to their battery life.
