[...]
Has anyone tested how many writes are going on to the ATLAS thumb
drive? Perhaps with all the failures within a year of start, perhaps
too many writes are taking place?
I know that a very small number of probes is not a valid basis for statistics,
but there wasn't a USB drive failure yet for the long-term, always-on probe.
But they are powered with dedicated, stable power sources.
Thus I tend to lean more towards the explanation involving level or stability
of power, rather than # of writes.
FWIW,
