Who knows. NAND Flash is high density and kinda unreliable, though.
In other words - know your tools.

True...but not nearly as recoverable.

Ex: overvolt an SSD and it's dead. Overvolt a rotational HDD and the PCB and/or motor might be fried, but the platters can be swapped into another drive of the same model and the data recovered.


Mind you, at the same token.

Throw an HDD at a wall, probably not going to survive. SSD much more likely.

Desktop, probably overvolted; laptop probably dropped.

Sure, but which of these is more likely to happen?

When a power supply fails and overvolts every component by 600% in its final seconds, does the drive get flung into a brick wall or does it get overvolted?

back your **** up, use a ****ing SSD. Best of both worlds.

Sorry, but your question was leading me to the answer you wanted. Of course, it's going to get overvolted. :P

Depends...is there a Ducky in the tub?

BTW Moogle sold his Ducky. If that isn't a sign that Ducky popularity is fading, I don't know what is.
