I would probably pay extra for a switch although a big heavy mechanical switch in the middle of the signal path for a modern SSD would probably not be as cheap as you might expect.
- WalterBright 5y agoIt can even be jumper pins the user who cares can attach their own switch to. I'd pay extra for a slide switch on a USB stick. Heck, USB sticks often come with a slider for a retractable cover, obviously that cost is insignificant. Hard drives used to come with those jumper pins. They are not costly.
- mhh__ 5y agoThe point I was making is that the signal integrity work would be a lot harder than for a hard drive of yesteryear. The BOM cost of the switch isn't that important
