I haven't seen a corrupted SD card on an SBC in, well since at least 2015. I guess it's possible under heavy read/write but I've not experienced it and I tinker with the stuff at least a couple times a year.
- beebeepka 4y agoReally? My Pi managed to corrupt two 128gb cards in 2 years or so. It absolutely happens. I was running light web apps with less than 10 users, hence minimal writes, especially for cards this big
- cptskippy 4y agoI run a couple Raspberry Pi 2s and they average about 1 SD card a year between them.
- woleium 4y agoare you mounting with noatime, cuz you should be.
- abudabi123 4y agoTo reduce wear and tear you can set temporary storage to /dev/shm, point the application setting for cache there. TMPDIR is one environment variable for this kind of thing. The distros for SBCs should optimize for ramdisk.
- hadlock 4y agoYes. I buy my SD cards from B&H to try and minimize chances of getting counterfit product. I have never had a corrupted card that I can recall, and I just unplug them.
