Tom’s Hardware: MicroSD card torture test writes 133 petabytes of data across 351 cards over three years — cards tested to failure reveal SanDisk as the outlier with 6 failures of the 7 tested. “There are many different options available if you want to buy a microSD card, but which one of these lasts the longest? Tech enthusiast Matt Cole wanted to find out, so he set up a torture rig in 2023 […]

Dang, I just discovered my expensive SD card I got from Sony is defective and the recall period ended a year ago. I tried to record some slow motion video and the camera was like "we need v90 for that."
But it IS v90....
I got it specifically so I would never have to worry about format limits, despite not having immediate plans for the high-end uses. At least it's still actually v90 for photos, just not for video, apparently. Oh well.

First they came for the DDR5 RAM,
and I did not speak out,
because I was only interested in micro SD cards for my handhelds.... Damn.

I've learned the hard way that there is an enormous difference between microSD cards in the amount of power they need. When it comes to putting audio recorders out in nature, that matters a lot.
As an example, I was just comparing my latest AudioMoth results with SanDisk Extreme 64GB cards compared with Samsung Pro Plus 128 GB cards last year.
In the same device, with the same dawn-dusk daytime recording settings, on the same three fully-charged Powerex rechargeable batteries, the Samsung card recorded for four days (11 GB) before flattening the batteries, while the SanDisk cards recorded for 12 days (44 GB) before the flattening the batteries.
Given that it takes a lot of time for me to get to these remote sites to deploy these recorders, this makes a big difference to how much data I get.

Wow, this is really interesting. I have 8 SD-cards, 4 x 256GB Samsung Evo Plus and 4 x 512GB Samsung Evo Select.
7 of those cards show big fluctions when transferring 200 to 300 GB videofiles off of them. But 1 card, the last one obviously, shows no fluctuations in transfer speed. It just stays maxed out.
Other factors are as equal as you get over multiple days and reboots.
So it does seem to be something about the SD-cards...

In this buyer-beware world that we (unfortunately) live in, I am very grateful for efforts like this
