storage density is kind of ridiculous these days

you can get half-terabyte micro-sd cards

i wonder how those compare speed-wise to cheap SSDs

@Felthry I'd be mostly concerned about reliability

@noiob if comparing sd cards in general with specifically cheap ssds, i'm pretty sure decent sd cards will be more reliable. could be wrong though!

@noiob you can get a 512gb samsung microsd card for $80, a similarly sized samsung ssd is about twice that but you can get less reliable brands for less

@Felthry @noiob SSD prices fell down, 80€ is what you can get a 500gb Samsung SSD for nowadays
