## Description

Uptime is sometimes a storage problem. The microSD card is the single most common failure point in an always-on project, and this one is rated for 30,000 hours of continuous writing - roughly three and a half years of non-stop logging.

Every maker who has left [a Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi.html) running knows the failure: it works for months, maybe if we're lucky - years, then one morning the filesystem is read-only and the logs stop. Consumer microSD cards are designed around occasional writes and frequent reads. A datalogger, a weather station, a Pi camera on motion-capture, or a headless server writing logs inverts that assumption entirely - the same flash blocks get rewritten thousands of times until the wear-levelling runs out of spares. Endurance-rated flash exists precisely for this workload, and it costs a fraction of the field trip needed to replace a dead SD card.

Rated Class 10, U3 and V30, it sustains the write throughput for continuous 4K capture from a [Pi Camera Module](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/camera/official-camera-modules.html) or a top of the line USB webcam, and reads back at up to 100MB/s so pulling a month of data off doesn't take an afternoon. It's temperature-proof, waterproof, shockproof and X-ray-proof - relevant when the enclosure is bolted to a shed wall or riding in a vehicle. As a microSDXC card, it needs a microSDXC-compatible host, which covers every Raspberry Pi from the Model 3 onward.

### Features

- Rated for 30,000 hours of continuous writing, so unattended loggers and always-on Pi nodes survive years rather than months - backed by Sandisk's warranty
- Endurance-optimised flash handles the rewrite-heavy workload of circular buffers, rolling logs and loop recording without exhausting wear-levelling
- U3 / V30 video speed class sustains uninterrupted 4K capture from Pi Camera Modules and USB webcams - no dropped frames during a motion event
- Reads at up to 100MB/s, cutting the wait when you retrieve a season of datalogger output
- Operates from -25°C to 85°C, covering outdoor enclosures, sheds and vehicle interiors in full sun
- Waterproof, shockproof and X-ray-proof, for deployments where conditions aren't controlled
- Includes a full-size SD adapter for flashing images and pulling data on a laptop or desktop
 
### Choosing the Right Card

This card is tuned for sustained sequential writes and rewrite endurance — ideal for dataloggers, camera capture, rolling logs, dash cams and security cameras. It carries no A1/A2 application-performance class, so if your priority is faster random access for a Raspberry Pi OS root filesystem, an A2-rated card may feel quicker day to day. Many makers run both: an A2 card for the OS (read-only), and this one for the data partition.
