Working resource
A measure of the lifespan of a storage device, expressed in thousands of hours. The parameter determines the approximate working life of the memory card with constant cycles of writing and erasing data. It is indicated, frankly, infrequently, but it is by this indicator that it is most preferable to select a drive for devices operating in the cyclic recording mode of information (for example, video recorders, cameras and video surveillance kits).
Adapter included
An additional
adapter is included with the memory card.
The adapter is a device with which the card can be installed in a non-native format card reader. Nowadays, microSD cards are mainly equipped with such a device — adapters are designed to install such media in a slot for a full-size SD card. This is convenient primarily for exchanging data between portable gadgets like a smartphone / tablet and larger equipment like PCs and laptops — for example, to copy pictures from a smartphone camera to a computer or music from a computer to a smartphone.
Manufacturer's warranty
Manufacturer's warranty provided for this model.
In fact, this is the minimum service life promised by the manufacturer, subject to the rules of operation. Most often, the actual service life of the device is much longer than the guaranteed one. But an indicator of 5 years suggests that the memory card is more likely to be lost or become irrelevant. You can also come across
a lifetime warranty, but in this case it is better to clarify the details of what it applies to. And in any case, it implies a certain period of time, though measured in decades. In addition to confirmation of reliability, such a guarantee allows you to contact the supplier after a while to eliminate possible problems (of course, not mechanical). But the difficulties in implementing this procedure (the representative office is located only in large cities) and the rare cases of the need for this (after all, it is easier to buy a new flash drive, with the exception of vital information on the old media) make the lifetime warranty more of a marketing ploy than a cool chip.
