Comment on Best way to keep a hot spare SD card for a raspberry pi?
avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 3 months agoThat wouldn’t solve the problem though would it? It might make it less likely to fail but there’s still significant downtime if there’s no hot spare for this USB drive.

I couldn’t count the number of failed sd cards I’ve seen across all my fingers and toes.
I’ve seen like 4 ssds in my entire life fail. Plus you could just do mdraid 1 if you want

Any failures of SanDisk Extreme Pro / Samsung Evo Plus?
I buy the redundancy argument. I’d still use ZFS for that if possible though. 😂

Yes. I’ve always splurged on nice cards for my personal stuff. I think it’s more about the write behavior of Linux than anything else, since I’ve never had a card die in my camera.
I refuse to use a pi with SD at this point. Saving $50 isn’t worth my time to reinstall things.

You’re making me nervous.
