Inappropriate source

Source 77 is a list of products for sale - has nothing to do with write cycle count — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.109.60.240 (talk) 04:50, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

details of issue

can anyone share me what is the issue with that page..?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reetika Bhayana (talk • contribs) 10:17, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

weigh

Write that it's normally less than 30 grams and not 28, I know that 1 OZ is 28 grams (who even uses imperial units anymore) but it's an approximated comparaison and not a fixed value so it's better to write 30 grams. 2A01:E35:8A04:9920:1D7C:65C6:1FB1:858A (talk) 07:06, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Needs correction

The lead claims that a USB flash drive is "typically" smaller than an optical drive. This is outdated and no longer true and hasn't been for years!! Even on a cost per GB basis, (for retail products) USB technology is less expensive than DVD or Blu-Ray. (I suspect mass produced optical disks may be less expensive per GB, but that would require an authoritative source and most likely hard to pin down - although the fact that physical distribution of commercial electronic media (software, music, video,...) uses optical disks is strong evidence for it...)40.142.185.108 (talk) 22:33, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
