Ask Lemmy

I don't care about speed, bigger storage, or small price difference all i want is it to not start corrupting my files randomly, die really fast, be unreliable etc . i just want something to put my files on then delete em and add something else, and forget about it and have it work for atleast 10 years . I don't really transfer a lot of big files so i don't think the memory cycles thing is gonna be a big problem . I used to think sandisk was good as i have an old 7+ year sd which still works without any issue but recently i bought another one which started corrupting my files and stopped working on my device under a year and i'm beginning to think sandisk is not that good anymore so share your experiences and opinions/thoughts etc .

Also i don't know where else to ask or if this is the right /c/ so feel free to let me know and i'll take it down but don't downvote incase i can actually get some answers .

Edit : This is probably a dumb question but does always being in a device reduce lifetime compared to being kept out of devices after putting data in it ? It is designed to be put in devices right so it shouldn't affect it right ?
