Why do you not use SD cards for backing up your data?

I have a hard drive, silly.

>>53723112
11 megabytes/sec is slow

Because I have a NAS and external drives I keep offline until needed which offer higher capacities than currently available SD cards at a fraction of the price while not requiring the use of an adapter for my desktops.

data integrity. sd cards suck, never store anything important on them permanently.

SD cards are slow as hell and have a fairly limited number of write cycles. And HDDs are cheaper per GB.

I'd rather not trust everything to something so small a dog could eat it.

Maybe OP is doing some shady shit and WANTS to eat it.

Because solid state memory is terrible for offline storage. SSDs, USB sticks, SD cards, they all have very short power-off data retention, in archival and backup time scales.
Even paper is better.

It clearly says 95MB/s rw anon.

sd cards are good for temporary storage, which is why they're used in cameras

why dont you use my dick for backing up your anus?

They're really slow.

And in some systems you get this strange overload of the motherboard where it will slow down your internet connection. You think I'm bullshitting? Try it and see. Copy a big file to a USB drive or SD card and you may see a slowdown in other system activities.
