Ever since my Thinkpad X40 running XP SP2 on a 32GB CF card mysteriously developed a broken USB driver problem, I've been bummed out and a bit more wary about seriously using flash memory. It also makes me think twice about SD cards as boot drives (not to mention they're slow over IDE). So, looking around my desk drawer I noticed I still had a 4GB Microdrive left over from an iPod Mini upgrade. The drive seems to be in good condition, makes me wonder how practical it would be for Windows.
Has anyone here used Microdrives as boot disks before? Obviously for applications where better hard drives are unavailable due to size or pin connector style. I don't mind slower access time as long as the drive is dependable and won't put data at risk.
