flash drives are slow, tho
even the fastest ones only have peak read speeds in the 20MB/s range
the only benefit i could think of is seek time, but i don't even know how good THAT is on a usb device....
plus, i'd think you'd still be better off with a hard drive that takes an extra few 1/10's of a second, but then proceeds to read 3-4 times faster.
