    Not many. An ssd would be cheaper than most pen drives with static wear leveling. Just use the flashmemory plugin and you should be ok with a normal (new) flash drive.

    I can't find my reference now, but for what it's worth I know I have read somewhere about the Sandisk Cruzer Extreme USB drives using the same controller as there SSD's (with wear leveling) and seem to last much longer that most USB drives.


    Since then, I've been running a pogoplug with Debian Squeeze on one for well over a year now and no problems to speak of.


    You might consider trying one if you haven't already bought one, they are very convenient to use won't won't consume a SATA port.
