but since pendrives are used to keep really important stuff right from office documents to personal song playlists... so they should last really long...

About the important stuff from office, I has great using experience in Kingston DTVP 4GB. Its 256-bit AES hardware encryption is really convenient in use and provides completely security. Plus with its 24/10 mbs speed, It's a good choice you can try if you have secure issue in job.
sorry this is my first post in this forum.
i have 2 of my transcend drives busted to dust. the controller chip is fried somehow. well, they are more than 3 years old. and have been heavily abused, with debian sid/experimental install with uuid root encrypted with luks and twofish (dont like AES-256 much), so i had no other use of those drives.
so i opened the case, took it to the store where they do SMD soldering, i took the flash memory chip out from both the drives, 1 2b and 1 4 gb, and i have a few devices like airtel beetel 220bx and 110bxi and linksys wrt54g v5 (suckiest version) and i upgraded the flash memory with those from kingston.
i know thats a cheap bast***ized approach, but then again, hey, who wishes to spend 5k for 128 MB intel flash memory chips for the router and also i had old TSOP rams scattered here and there, picked up and same SMD on them, took the 32 MB chip and installed on the wrt54g v5 with openwrt kamikazi. the device footprint on the chips are perfect match. which means i get a 2 gig (2016 MB) of space for the firmware and loads of softies and also 32 megs (256 mb) ram. mmmmm thats a good hack.
i know there are many things in this world are of no use and ideal for a throw away, but if you are a little cheap miser like how i am? you still squeeze the left over juice of it.
sorry i am one heck of a kanjoos makkhichoos.
i am planning to SMD it to the other adsl modems. if you guys need a detailed info on how to do it. software and also surface mount soldering SMD to upgrade the chips and load the old devices with cutting and bleeding edge software with minor flash and/or ram upgrade? let me know. i will try my best to contribute.
i dont think i will be able to opload the binaries, but i will send the configuration files and process description.
you need linux, any linux, and basic know how for linux.
as this is my first post in forum? and being a brat i never care to read the rules and et al, they are ment to be broken else bend. well, never read/cared about rules.
