eldino, the 3854 does not support a 2.5" IDE drive. You'd have to use one of these HDD-ready eBoxes: 3850 (serial and parallel), 3851 (mini PCI, parallel and CF socket) or 3853 (dual Ethernet and CF socket). All of those models have 2 USB ports. Also, you'd need to make sure that 256MB is enoug...

Also, many flash modules have built-in wear leveling. This means that the write/erase cycles are distributed across the e...
