Didn't National Semiconductor have a spec sheet for write only memory back in the late 70s or early 80s?
I think they developed it for the NSA.

Can you set flash drives to be write-only? Why would you want to do this? Logging. If a h@xx0r cracks your box he can't erase anything that's already been written there. Often it takes a physical change (jumper, dipswitch, etc) to change from write-only to read-only making it pretty tough for the h@xx0r to cover his steps.
Eh? Setting a flash drive to *write-only* would fix this how? Why would anyone want to make a flash drive *write-only*?
