New Sandisk WORM cards write once, read for 100 years
In addition to the cards being only able to be written to once, they’re intended to last for 100 years. Now, I’ve taken some pretty good pictures (going to Yosemite this weekend in fact) but I don’t know for certain that I’d have any desire to keep any of my pictures that long. Sandisk suggests using them for evidence collection and so on — as long as they’re adequately protected, a write-once, tamper-proof card could be an important tool in court.
The new cards aren’t yet available for purchase, but no doubt Sandisk will have them available at some point in the near future.
