| I know, but I wanted the famous speed a SSD/flash system is supposed to
| give for the OS. Specially given that it is an old system.

I could be wrong, but I think

- most USB sticks are quite slow.

- USB2 sticks are guaranteed to be slow-ish

- USB sticks seem to have low reliability.  The seem to be designed
  for a different usage pattern (not continuous).

- I've had trouble booting from USB3 sticks in USB3 ports.  I think
  that some BIOSes are not ready for this.

- USB sticks are easy to knock because they stick out of the port

On the other hand, once the server has gotten through startup

- for many server applications, access to things that would live on a
  USB stick are such that RAM caching makes the performance less
  important.
