I've had at least two of the better known brands (Samsung, SanDisk) fail on me. When I looked around for allegedly more reliable ones, I found Transcend High Endurance and have used nothing else for years now. Not a single one has failed. Of course this is ONE person's experience and it's possible I was just unlucky with the other cards followed by getting lucky with the Transcend. But at this point the price difference is sufficiently uninteresting to make me want to stick with alleged high-endurance cards. They're often sold as being suitable for dashcams as they allegedly stand up better to repeated rewrites. I also usually go no lower than 32GB on the assumption that extra space means fewer writes over the same sectors...but I could be laughably wrong about that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110533 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
