We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Would it be okay if I use a 1tb micro sd card not labeled "high endurance?"

What can happen if I use a regular v30 micro sd card. Will it overheat or cause frames to cut?

Could using regular sd cards damage security camera?

I have a security camera and I am interested in getting a 1tb micro sd card just to have longer history video log. I only see 512gb "high endurance" available. Micron, which their promotion is for security camera is 1.5tb but I don't see any mention that their product is high endurance. Just stating longer video logs. Sandisk sells 1.5tb as well for an affordable price.

Kioxia stated that they might release a 2tb micro sd card this year.

For now, I just want your opinions on using non-high endurance micro sd card for security camera

After x months the standard SD card will fail. After y months the endurance SD card will fail. It is likely that y is a larger number than x.

Video will then no longer be recorded and the camera will, perhaps, behave as if no SD card is inserted. Or it will explode in a small thermonuclear detonation. YMMV.
