Tell me more

I use CompactFlash cards running the RouterOS software as part of my daily operations. I have never had a CF card fail yet in 3 years of operations. |

It's hard to tell exactly what you're asking, but I'd say the answer is yes. Lots of people use CF cards as the main OS disk for special purpose linux servers. |

Flash memory is viable as storage. Look up "Solid State Drives" or "SSD" |
