Storage: how is the storage viewed? Contiguous or
block based, is it possible to have random access etc.
Like any other block (ie hard drive) device.
As comparison to hard-disk scenario is the access
overhead (seek/rtotational/transfer delays) - do such
concepts apply to flash memory?
Yes, but the times involved are much smaller.
How do seek and rotational delays affect Flash RAM?
If you spin around in a circle fast enough while holding the flash
card, all the bits slide to the outside edge where they're harder to
reach. ;)
