Review on πŸ“· SanDisk High Endurance Video Monitoring Card 64GB (SDSDQQ-064G-G46A) - Reliable Surveillance Storage Solution with Adapter by Benjamin Chang

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Limited lifetime in DVR

I ordered this microcard in April 2017 and it was dead at the end of May 2018. It was used in a Yi DVR for 1080p recording. I understand that the dashcam is constantly writing and overwriting data to the card, but I typically only drive about 2-3 hours a day Monday-Friday and maybe 1-2 hours on weekends. That's only about 900 hours a year. Even if I double that to 1,800 hours per year, that's still far from the claimed 10,000 hour expected lifespan. I expected this card to last at least 18 months before having any problems. Now I can't even reformat the card. If it worked, it worked well, which is why I give it 2 stars, no less.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Uncertain
