Advantage, no hard drive failures.
Disadvantages, no local logging, if your object/rule database is too
large you can not install a policy, separate packages for different
flash systems with different size memory, limited package support.
Basically, a lot of pain. There are hybrid models and add-on pcmcia
devices that help with some of these.
Since hard drives are prone to fail, and Nokia did not have a good track
record for some models, diskless does have some appeal. I am with sin,
choose your poison.
