Flash drives are tricky  some  are poor quality.

Some are good.  

I prefer  usb sticks  for my smos.

I prefer  small ssds for windows.

Here are some sticks that work for smos/linux

small and so far so good.

Same here.  I'm using 32GB USB drives for smos rigs and 120GB SSDs for Windows rigs.  I'd definitely recommend SSDs over HDDs for Windows systems.  The time saved in reboots alone is worth it imo.
