This maybe mentioned before, but you guy do know that pretty much all flash based storage (usb/memory) are based on NAND technology that has a limited write times of 100,000 (low end) to 1 million. Most likely other components will fail before the NAND memory, but to take into consideration of programs or OS that frequently write and rewrite to usb/flash memory. Use for mainly back up/file transfer...

Of course u could claim the lifetime warranty and ... yadah... yadah... yadah
