SD card usage
We advise to use high-grade, highly-durable microSD cards. Note that microSD cards are limited
to the number of write cycles ranging from 200 (off-the-shelf TLC NAND) to 100.000 (industrial
SLC NAND). Intensive usage will eventually wear out the card.
The number of write cycles times the capacity of the microSD card gives you the total amount of
data that can be written to the card in its life time. A 32 GB microSDHC with 2000 write cycles,
for example, can write 64 TB before it should be replaced.
