I was just wondering myself if, when i need to rewrite something into my pen drive, if I delete the old file and replace it with the new one, am I reducing the pen drive's life time because Im writting using the same phisical location on it??? Im saying, wouldn't be better if I just create another folder and write the new version of my file on another location instead of recicle the same location and, when it reaches all of driver's capacity reformat it and insert the lastest versions of my things??

Im asking it because I had a pen drive with 8GB that i use to write small files into it and after 6 months of rewritting and recicling the same files and folders, it stopped and died.
