~~Yeah, digital cameras with raw images is pretty much the only usecase of TB sdcards.~~ Keep in mind that they don't have wear leveling and a very simple controller. Also lower quality flash than SSDs.
Must be just my imagination that I use them in my handheld emulators.
TB? You shouldn't. Or keep a backup. In cameras, they are used as a transfer device, the size of the sdcard determining; how long you can film/how much snapshots you can make before transfering.
It's the only storage my emulator devices will accept.
Yes, a backup is smart.
