I've got a question, or topic for discussion ... what is the life expectancy of the data stored on things like floppy disks, CDR's, Zip Disks, and Flash RAM drives... I looked on the web quick to see if i could find anything interesting without much luck, once you type that stuff in it's instantly "click here to buy..." crap, so if anyone finds some interesting URLs post em here
i'm mostly interested in knowing more about Flash RAM, I've read the data integrity is anywhere between 3-5 years depending on the device. which isn't bad i suppose, but i'd love to know more about why that is. I'm rather certain CDR's have a very long life expectancy, flash ram is something new I don't know much about
