How do seek and rotational delays affect Flash RAM?
If you spin around in a circle fast enough while holding the flash
card, all the bits slide to the outside edge where they're harder to
reach. ;)
Yes, but if you read from the outside edge then your bit density is
greater and therefore your theoretical maximum transfer rate is
higher, providing that the bits don't all fly around when you stop
spinning. This benefit would outweigh the harder to reach bits. :-)
Doesn't all that depend on whether you are on the northern or the
southern hemisphere?
And which way you spin!
