Funny how ~18 years later I still have compact flash devices plugged into IDE ports that have never failed. In fact, across a broad spectrum of applications and installs, I have never seen a working CF device fail in the field. SSDs on the other hand ... I use SSDs for caching (ZFS read cache and mirrored SLOGs) and I use them for mirrored boot devices in modern, production systems that should have a fast OS device. But if I want a system to run forever ... if I am optimizing for longevity ... I use compact flash, even in 2016. (yes, of course I set them to be read-only and disable swap) |
