Is there a difference between the wear leveling and other factors which influence lifespan btwn sdcards and usb thumb drives? I assume thumb drives are better because theres more space/power for drive controller.
There was a thread talking about static/dynamic wear leveling on usb thumb drives previously and it got me thinking whether sdcards have better or worse wear leveling compared to thumb drives.
Its easy to get 3d-tlc sdcards (evoplus) but it seems much harder to figure out which usb flash drives have 3d flash.
Finally its seems logical that larger flash drives/sdcards are going to be more durable in terms of write degradation but this thead #13 from another website mentions that erase page/block size could be proportionately larger compared to smaller drives thus making them just as susceptible to wear.
