>>For the media, Clik is probably more durable than flash card but a flash controller chip is more than 100 times more reliable than the miniature Clik drive even though the die size is 10 times smaller than a running motor and a moving r/w head. Clik drive can go vanilla without dropping but the flash memory mechasim rarely fail. When you drop your desktop on floor, you have greater than 50% chance to total your HDD but that doesn't imply that your computer will be safe if it will never drop on floor. Your HDD is still the most fragile parts which can bring down your whole computer. OTOH, how often will the memory bring down the computer?<<

That's all nice, but how do you know Clik! won't be durable enough? Do you have a Clik! you've tested? It is designed with durability in mind, I assume.
