.. . .

   According to the (de-facto ad) from here :

   https://www.delkin.com/blog/wear-leveling-usb-flash-drive-basics/

   Most thumb drives do not use leveling, instead it's mostly in
   SSDs and such. However 'industrial' thumb drives - at least
   this corps - DO employ on-chip-controlled leveling algos.
