Re: harddrives with built-in NAND fkash

I have used the same kind of drive as a main drive on my laptop. While I 
have no proof that the extra nand where used, I tend to think they were. 
There wasn't any extra drive showing in gparted or other tool. Plus 
those nand are used by the drive to store most used file and quicken the 
loading of them, so I don't think it's the OS job to deal with them.
