umm, No and No. NAND flash has a lower setup latency (usec vs ms), and probably similar sustained read/write times if the HDD has a cache. At a million writes the NAND flash is going to last a decent time, and it'll draw a lot less power than a HDD. Flash reliability and ruggedness will be alot better than a HDD with no moving parts. The only advantage a HDD has is price, and thats going away too.
