When it is normally used memory chip don’t take so much force, that’s why I mount radiator on it. By the way let me tell you some words about overheating. When it was working radiator from video memory was winded by small, but powerful cooler. Link a flash drive through USB extension for more convenience.
A special program, executing simple algorithm was written for this high wire test. Writing—buffer cleaning – entry verification – erasing – rounds counting.
Activate the program and wait. Wait for long. Software will stop the process itself if it will find an error.
One round will took about 20 seconds, for 128 Mb flash drive. The whole test took more then twenty four hours, it is better not to stop the process. I think you can, but you have to write down preliminary results. After the end of the test the program displays something like this.
That’s the end. And where are the promised one hungered thousands? It's only five thousands. The result is quite disappointing and it’s not exactly, but it gives a presentation of the real resource of modern flash drives. But very doubtful, the drive could crash from overheat or flash drives of larger capacity differ from this one. But the drive couldn't burn off from overheating, data drives could take more, overclockers will understand me.
But what are about manufacturer’s claims, how did they test them? May be I was down on my luck?
So, now I have lots of questions.
I’m sure that others would have possibility to test flash drives and the statistics would set the record straight. For those who was not attentive reading this article, I repeat, that during such test flash drive should fall out.
