re: IEEE spectrum article....

The article and its companion contain a number of mistakes, like "100.000 to 5M write cycles for NAND flash" (it's more like 10,000 for MLC)
and

"limiting NAND flash to sequential access to its stored bits in blocks of 512 megabytes." (sic!!! it might be 512KB or less...)

p.s. and i even subscribed to their publications for more than ten years ....
