    FlashDrive or HardDrive. Off Topic.

    The business (Parcel Courier Service) can't afford to have a computer down. I was planning to use a USB Flash Drive (or similar) for data storage so that if the power is lost, or the computer dies, we can move the USB drive to a laptop and continue working with almost no data loss.

    Is this a reasonable way to go? Are the USB drives fast enough?

    Under condition, that the transfer of data ( the speed of writes) min. 15 MB / sec , and the offered area of memory not less than 512 MB (better 1 GB)

    I have 3 computers, 2 in my work and 1 in my hous. I use YetFlashDrive 19 MB/sec 1 GB memory, and it's O.K.
    I know, I know, my English is bad, sorry .....
