Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) SanDisk 512GB Extreme PRO UHS-I SDXC Memory SDSDXXY-512G-ANCIN (bhphotovideo.com) Where does all that info go? What will be the limit for a SD card? 1TB 1.5TB? Beside using the cards normally, they would probably be good for a homeless person to keep their data on. I read about a homeless guy in the Ohio Valley. The city went in and razed the tent encampment taking all the tents down. When he came back to the camp all his family photos of his parents were gone as well as all his personal belongings. All destroyed, trashed at the dump. Of course the homeless guy would have to plug in the SD card every 5 - 10 years to keep it charged up. I've tested SD cards for 5 years and they hold the data uncharged. The 10 year test is still under way. I've read the SDD drives don't hold data very long unless you charge them. Some say months or maybe a year. My photos and digital are some of my most important possessions. I mean, if our house is burning down what do we grab? Money, photos and loved ones. Edited December 17, 2020 by Daniel D.

Raymond Zananiri Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I'm puzzled by the same thing. If an SD holds 0.5 TB why couldn't an SSD hold 5 TB if it's more than 10 times the physical volume of an SD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
