Do you think flash memory will become the hardrives of tomorrow?

This is up in the air. As information gets larger, it needs a faster way of getting this info. While flash drives are popular and are not prone to data loss as much as a HDD, I believe that the solid state hard drive is not going away any time soon. The transfer rate of the SATA II drives are really fast, much faster then a flash drive will ever be, probably.

Yes but not by flash memory as it has a finite limit on how many times you can write on it and most importantly I think something better than flash might enter the market by the time it gets replaced.

THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT
just look at ipods - only classic now has hard drive and everybody says this is the last ipod with hard drive - flash is the future as soon as they manage to put enough gbs on them

Better yet I think most computers will strongly resemble Zonbu's, and storage will be on offsite servers. (see www.zonbu.com)
