I use these when I kayak fish. They're literally running 6 hours at a time in a GoPro that's on the edge of overheating the entire time. I haven't had one of these fail yet, and the reader they come with is the fastest I've used. I consistently get 160 megabytes per second. I have three GoPros hero11 and now 12 going at a time and with three of these readers each in different USB port on my desktop I can transfer all of the data quickly where each one will be transferring at 160 MB a second.. so long as your nvme drive can take it.

Came hear to say a cell phone companies want to charge $100 for 128GB upgrade. I'm still using my Galaxy s20 for the simple fact of a deal like this
older phones like the s20, that makes sense. but for newer iphones, galaxy s, and pixel phones, the storage speed is above 1000 MB/s, fast enough to be usable as ram. it sorta makes sense that the companies charge an abnormal amount for a storage upgrade, although it seems they take it a bit too far
Sometimes, it can be as simple as a cosmetic "tell". For instance, the text printed on the SD card is white when it's supposed to be red. Counterfeiters have been getting much better about this in recent years.
However, most of the time, using software to benchmark the card's performance and comparing it to 1) a known good card, or 2) the published performance spec, is the best way to tell.

Samsung software can verify it, but I doubt he's ever checked that way, or else he wouldn't have a problem buying from Amazon and checking it himself. I've yet to get a counterfeit.
