- using a normal micro SD card in a dashcam, doorbell cam, raspberry pi. These make frequent writes to the card which wears out the memory cells. For purposes with constant writing of data, buy high endurance SD cards.
- using too small a card for the frequency of write operations. Again, the memory cells wear sooner than in a higher capacity card where the writes can be more distributed.
- when the price is too good to be true.
