If you have a workload that writes data quite frequently, then moving that data off to an external SSD is also a good way to extend the lifetime of the SD card.

- unlikelymordant 4y agoYou can boot directly off the ssd, i dont even have an sd card installed
- hddherman 4y agoThat's true, I forgot that was a feature they supported with the newer Pi-s. Doesn't work for Pi 1, you can move the root partition to the SSD, but anything needed for the initial boot still has to live on the SD card.
