The purpose is for travel, I don't have a "safe" place to keep an extra copy. I don't care about the speed of the drive. It is important to me that the data is not damaged.

Storage volume - 1TB will

be enough.

It is important that it

be small - an SSD does not fit because of the physical size (even SanDisk's

don't fit).

 

The questions:

  1. Is it true that every

memory card is waterproof? And would a memory card inside an adapter be better

than a USB flash drive? 2. I read that a flash

drive can be damaged if not used for a period of time. Is there any truth to

this? 3. A cloud seems the

safest for physical damage. My basic premise is to trust well-known companies

like Microsoft more, if only for the reason that they have an interest in

keeping customers. But the cloud is not under my control. What will happen if a

credit card is not valid, what if something happens to me? Is it safe to upload

large rar files? (By the way, rar with a password is a method that, in my

opinion, overcomes cloud encryption problems) 4. Phones today seem to

have no risk of sudden general destruction. Maybe this is the safest way? (It's

true that it's a big product, but you take a phone anyway) The phone also

allows automatic backup to the cloud... 5. What do you recommend?

What kind of storage?

In the type of storage -

which product is the most recommended
