I'd bet prolly 10000 times more SD Card writes than a typical non-dev system.

If you want the kind of reliability and stability in SD Card storage that I've experienced then get Surveillance-grade cards like the WD Purple QD101. Don't skimp on this component!

Thank you very much, Tim.

I’ve made me a note with this and it seems i should be more than extremely unlucky to experience any issues, my intended use taken in consideration.

Kind regards

Speaking not as a performer but as the former tech director for 4 years of my grandkids' high school theater productions, there's nothing like a live performance to find out how likely some "extremely rare" thing could happen.  Murphy seems to love an audience.

"Hope for the best but plan for the worst" was our motto. Smile

Yes Murphy's Law, the most important natural law in Physics.

Oh that damn Murphy… yup, sure seems to favourize attention-grabbing situations…

Going with that motto will sure handle some less desireable situations Kent, I have, for example, a spare bass head if Murphy messes with my old Hartke head.

Kind regards

"Hope for the best but plan for the worst and carry a big stick" was my mentors phrase... (also known as 'percussive maintenance' )

Especially for inanimate contrary mechanical devices. 
This is my favourite applied instance ever...(you will know it well Kent)
