Notable alumni
gollark: Samsung tends to have pretty high pricing compared to other brands now.
gollark: But I can't actually figure out where I put it and my phone can do the same thing, so it's a bit limited in use.
gollark: I have a cheap 64GB USB stick from Toshiba or something for use as a live USB and stuff.
gollark: It makes sense for data you can't replace easily, I guess. But mostly I just have important stuff replicated onto multiple things.
gollark: Flash storage does seem to be generally pretty reliable as long as it doesn't break particularly soon or have some sort of horrible flaw, so I do now go for whatever's fairly cheap and has decent reviews. Obviously backups are important regardless of how reliable you assume your thing is.
