Will this device become obsolete? Of course, remember those huge freakin' floppy disks which were cutting edge? Quit being so negative people and look forward!

Correct me if im wrong but arent you taking a risk by storing stuff on RAM which is what those drives are. I see a big problem with the new solid state storage drives being so big. Think of it like a bucket of water. The bigger the bucket the harder to carry and the more likely that you are to spill some water (data). The smaller the bucket the more careful you can be with it. I have been told several times by many security and IT professionals not to use thumb drives for long term storage, but rather a medium for transferance. With that being said I believe that optical drives should be developed more to fit the future needs of the companies to store massive amounts of data. Leave the thumb drives to the general public.

Being in IT, I've faced lots of novice users still pretty careless with their data, especially something on a flash drive or hard drive. So, optical disc could be a better choice for them. I guess the whole world is having more non-computer-literated users than the literated ones. Optical discs would be better choice for longer period of data backup :) Of coz, for the real IT people, we’re quite aware on how to protect our data.

Having said that,at least with solid state media you can better control who can deconstruct or remove data, thru devices like Trucrypt or other security software. Lazer discs have too many tunities too to be destroyed physically either thur scratches or failure by dvd? players. I'm sure there will be comments against this idea. anything is possible. ketyung

A flash just like hdd that you can delete your data by mistake. For optical discs with the current burner software, at least need you to go thru several "next" buttons and then confirm then only you can change the data in it. I still feel optical discs quite useful for more permanently storing data e.g for backup purpose :) But we need he kind of not-so-easy erasable storage such as discs sometime.

None of them has ever managed to get a product on the market, though. Good luck MemPhile peeps, but I'm not going to get my hopes up til you actually get the thing on the market.
