SSD drives are better than hard drives for retention since they don't rely on magentic disks, they have no moving parts, temperature domains are much wider.
800,000 MTBF and 5,000,000 write/erase (per bit) and 10 years retention for a flash drive is typical.
They'll be a ot more common in a few years, but at current prices around 1k per 1G you only see them on systems demanding really high performance.
its quite a common system spec. around these parts, i was thinking of buying one of the 3.8 myself, but it seems go-l is actually a fake company or at least highly dodgy , so if you are going to buy one of these system from them, check it out in depth.
the hardware *is*real but the company is the fakey one, most of us still think its a complex gag rather than a scam, but who knows.
The specs on some of the system are a little, ahem, glorified.
