Not to mention MTBF on sticks is shocking, I have been usb booting and logging for a while, I haven't been able to have a stick last more then 6-8 months in a live machine before it just goes belly up. If you do want to use usb make sure it has ware level support.
Look into using SATA/IDE (ATA) DOM much more reliable medium.

One big trouble with mounted flash - if it will be switched off during write, it can be easily bricked, because on each write operation it updates translator into it's system area, and if this operation fails - you've got a dead stick. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
