Most reliable and durable flash drive avalible (16gb+) in c/datahoarder@selfhosted.forum
[–] Tweho@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think i'm going to go with two Corsair voyager gt's as mentioned in another comment and two sandisk extreme pros in a pelican case at two locations (one of each type at two locations).

Barring an act of god, that should be sufficient.

Thanks!

I'd need to buy two. I said money isn't an issue but scaling down a 3.2tb drive to 16gb seems a bit ridiculous. Wouldn't that money be better spent on an enclosure? Reason I asked for USB is because I can easily fit them in small storage places and can fit in my pocket.

One point of failure, and not super portable. But I appreciate the thought!

I have mission critical data that needs to travel well, so the plan is to have copies on two flash drives in case one fails. Cloud storage is not an option.

​

Needs to have very high quality memory chips, and be very resistant to the elements, shock, water etc.

​

I don't need a ton of storage, 16gb is fine and I don't care much about the speed. Price is not an issue.

Whats the best out there?
