    I worked on the firmware of this card back then. It is actually a controller with 2 interfaces being booted into different firmware depending on which side you power it up from. I love this card and use it personally until it died. The only problem is the joint being the weakest link and eventually they will snap, and you end up with a slice of mushroom too short to fit inside a standard SD slot.

      I believe it's not just all of the above, it's about cost. Not only is a moving part a failure point, it also makes the device cost more to make, and if it costs more to make they have to charge more to make a profit. If it costs more less people are willing to buy them. In most cases now a days, the device the SD card is inside of IS the reader also. So it's basically a niche product for a niche of a niche.

      I have like 12 sd card adapters that have just come free with stuff over the years. Finding an adapter should be relatively easy for most people. The reason this didn't take off is adding a usb connector added more logic and complexity to the chip design, and sd cards were generally supposed to be relatively cheap cards. It didn't really make sense for that market. It was [and likely still is] cheaper to include an adapter than a built in usb. Granted, at this point it isn't *that* much cheaper, being that these are dirt cheap to produce nowadays, but these usb sd cards never took off so there was never really a logistical reason to design new ones when they could just keep including an even more cheap adapter.

Either way he's definitely not going to be using it for anything meaningful, and was just for fun. In that case I would've went for the cheaper one just to try it out.

      @@SilverSpoon_ There is something called "data retention time". That's its lifespan. It's ~10 years with general use. Of course it depends on the quality of the drive and how long it gets used, but after that time some problems may occur. Even the firmware is stored in flash memory. The chip holds memory as charges that dissipate over time. If the bits don't refresh and something gets corrupted, you may notice that the computer can no longer access the drive.

      @@windestruct All depends of the SSD's technology. In a good couple of decades, I never had any of these issues even with a ~2002 16Mb Memory Stick and similar with USBs, phones. or various systems that use flash ROMs from the 1990's. It occurs when data are overwritten and secotrs tend to wear and being unusable, then enjoy your daily fsck, but on the expiring SSD, so it's not a thing. Sure there can be more dense SSDs that now will be subject to data loss, and this is why I urge the users to invest in a back up, external hard drive to frequently create a backup of their data. especially the OS/system and programs that should remain on the SSD, that's the idea.
      But otherwise, I don't think so. And I upgraded an old, one of the furst Asus EEEPC for someone who loved this laptop, it was crippled with XP pro on a SSD, yet still booting and all, did a backup, installed a lightweight Debian32bit. And it's go! It's impossible to find SSD upgrades compatible for these but the guy wants to use it to write, and transfer things via USB.
