Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Because it uses integrated circuit technology, flash storage is a solid-state technology, meaning it has no moving parts.
Detailed explanation-2: -The memory within most USB flash drives is multi-level cell (MLC), which is good for 3, 000 to 5, 000 program-erase cycles. However, some drives are designed with single-level cell (SLC) memory that supports approximately 100, 000 writes.
Detailed explanation-3: -The main difference is that flash memory is used in SSDs, but you’ll never find an SSD in a flash storage device. This comes down to basic economies of scale, where both in storage and physical space, SSDs are always larger in size than flash storage devices.
