Hi! I'm the guy that tested these and I hear you, as I mentioned at the bottom of the post, I'm currently working on stress testing some of the cards through a series of sequential read/write and random IO tests and as soon as I have enough data to justify the post, I shall be putting it up. I don't have a Samsung endurance card, though I'm testing a SanDisk MAX ENDURANCE card in this round.

I've been running the cheaper SanDisk High Endurance in my car dashcam, here in hot Australia for the last two years and it's still going perfect.

I am very interested in this as well. Could even help us with endurance info for other sized cards (like regular SD, etc) if they are using the same chip manufacturer inside!

I'm very interested in seeing how that SanDisk fares. Been thinking about getting it.

Which Samsung cards do you want?

I'm not sure if you're offering to purchase some to have their results added? You really don't have to, but I've created a list to help me keep track of which cards I don't have and wouldn't mind testing at https://www.amazon.se/hz/wishlist/ls/7JG01YVBN93M - I'll add other brands later but this is a good way to keep track of things and monitor prices anyway!

Let me know how testing goes, I always buy Sandisk but Samsung sometimes tugs at my hand before I buy their competitor.

If it was you that purchased the 3 then thank you so much! I should be able to get those and the others I had arrive in the last week added over the weekend. I'll post an update here (if I don't get banned for it? :D) as this will be another 500+ benchmark runs over another 10 cards.

I'll call it a day on performance testing at that point and put a group of them to the test endurance wise then!

Swissbit industrial cards might be interesting to check out to confirm they live up to their claims, but they're pricy.
