The ones used for 4K recordings are not slow 100+MBps, I won't say prone to failure as such, flash storage can only handle a finite number of writes but we can mitigate that by using wear leveling.
That's pretty slow for terabyte sized storage. And slow compared to the alternatives, too (600 MB/s or Gabs/s).
Spinning hard disks are faster than this, too. Have been for decade(s).
Hehe, I think I haven't caught up with the improvements, flash with 1GB/s transfer speed is ludicrously fast!
Other formats can exceed that by caching & writing to multiple chips at once i guess.
